Sean Strafford

My current works explore a minimalistic approach by breaking down figures, light and landscapes into the shapes that our subconscious collects. Growing up near the ocean and woods of Long Island has provided me with a great source of inspiration to draw from. As an artist, my job is to explore, experiment and pioneer a visual dialogue that will connect with the viewer on a visceral level. My color palette leans towards muted and calmer tones to emulate a soothing and relaxed feeling. The concepts for my paintings will usually come to me in unexpected flashes in which I allow my intuition to guide me in the process.
