AJ Wrobel (b. 1972 St. Paul, MN)
AJ Wrobel is best known for his abstract paintings, wielding the dynamic characteristics of expressive art he thrives on.
His paintings emerge through developed techniques of painting from the back side of unprimed fabric, with a delicate balance between his methodical artistic approach while being implemented in a quite fluid manner. His works are inspired by and created from what he refers to as an intuitive connectedness that he experiences with nature.
Developed alla prima reversed stain techniques to create the final “front” compositions devoid of any surface brushwork of the soaked paint. Every value, contrasts, soft and hard edges, areas of negative space, and myriad unique expressive marks are formed from the paint pour applied to the backside of the transparent sketched unprimed canvas. Confining the composition to only what paint can permeate the canvas, allowing nature to continually speak and surprise with its spontaneous response.
These layered, atmospheric works have highlights of poetic juxtaposition throughout their structure, ranging in bold employment of color within an expressive story.
