Have you seen the work of C. S. McIntire? Drawing inspiration from De Kooning, Pollock, and Van Gogh, his work is simultaneously graphic and serene — not surprising once I learned he previously worked as a graphic designer and art director where he combined illustration with digital design. I love his use of color, particularly when he mixes splashes of citrus against a neutral background — and his collage technique creates depth and intrigue. I will be adding this piece to my collection! Be sure to follow him on Instagram.
