Gasp! That’s the sound I made when I saw some of this work, by California-born artist Brooks Salzwedel, when I was in LA a few weeks ago. These images are gorgeous, but it doesn’t do them justice if you can imagine that! They are layered and layered, and then there’s some resin, and more layers, and graphite, and tape, and and and… sigh. Stunning.
ps. Brooks’ work is part of a pop-up show, titled “Home As Art”, curated by Good Eye Gallery … that opens TONIGHT in LA!
When: Wednesday, December 4 / 5pm ~ 8pm
Where: deasy/penner&partners . 200 S Los Robles Avenue . Pasadena, CA
pps. I might have three of my pieces in this show too. Maybe.
stunning!
elegant and understated. well done…
These are amazing.
Wow. I would love to see them in person.
you should! these seriously don’t do them justice!!
That first one looks like something I encountered in one of my dreams … and I want it on mu wall for that reason.
yes!!!!
Gorgeous! I thought it was layers of vellum at first, but you say cast resin? Wow, just wow.
i know, right? wow.
Lovely. Dreamy and evocative.
woooow
Absolutely stunning – so beautifully executed.
I saw one of these paintings on the TV show “Lost Girl” I think it was by the same artist. It has a very sureal look, spooky.
I’m so jealous of your fabulous Jealous Curation, and would love to have you see my collages (in case you might just think DAMN…). Whether or not you check out (or dig) my work, I thank you for yours!
