Eddie Martinez
"Perfect Stranger"
24" x 18"
Signed edition of 35
$300
Eddie Martinez uses oil paint, enamel, and spray paint to create vibrantly textured, abstract surfaces charged with drips, scratches, and brushstrokes. Offsetting the primary red and yellow with a denim hued blue, Martinez aggressively tacks on color to create a contrasting yet sophisticated palette, deeply rooted in color theory and the process of drawing. Perfect Stranger, while not obviously figurative, embodies the gesture of large-scale Abstract Expressionism while maintaining a quickness of hand that leaves room for the viewer to imagine a tender–even if unfamiliar–narrative.
