Just Needed a Break
Details Details Details...
Just needed to find something to paint away from the graphite, pastel and the business side of things for a while and this is what I came up with.
Enjoy....

Artist Statement
for Steven A Bove
for Steven A Bove
Chaos - Where Brilliant Dreams are Born.
Before the beginning of great brilliance, there must be Chaos.
Before a brilliant person begins something great, they must look foolish to the crowd.
Where form follows function the fine art of creating becomes a sojourn thru unseen images built upon traditional foundations and strict mathematical structure. My approach is not with the intension to evoke specific statements but to follow the ebb and flow of a truly provocative process.
My work frequently focuses on the complex dynamics that form and mold us. I am interested in examining those emotions. As a visual artist, I have chosen to probe these uniquely personal universal dynamic experiences. The pieces portray the repetitive patterns of dynamic interactive behavior. Images withdrawn from within the Chaos are drawn from experiences, icons and recent personal experiences and an awareness of life.
My work brings together the dynamics of our contemporary experience. Shapes gather together and hold the potential for confrontation and emotion. The abstract nature of the subject matter is at times refuted by the gestures or the colors within, while sharing the same physical space; the shapes appear lost in their own separate worlds.
I have felt an urgent need to understand, recognize and learn from artists who came before me. It is in this enigma that I continue my search.

still go on.

I love when you mix your two styles togheter (realism and abstract)...when you find the right way to do that.
Beautiful!
PS I did not understand if the title refers to you or to Agron. :))
The title is a reference to me but the gesture of Agron was chosen to bridge the feeling also.
Thank you Roberto....
Thank you.
It's perfect! :))
I see Agron has returned so I will put you on the list for one - how about with a great head dress - no not that kind of dress Steve – LOL….
Bravo
I am back Steve with my first exhibition happing right now and 2010 is looking like a fantastic year, love to you xxx
Great colors balance and likeness; really beautiful my friend!
I know Antonino that this is a style I created and toil over and struggle with. When I get frustrated and just attack the canvas as I did here I get such a great rush yet I cannot seem to sell these just yet for I must once again establish myself as an artist. So I turned to the more traditional style and I am now full time in the studio. I will not surrender to it but I must continue for I love my family, my life and my art.
Thank you Antonino for sharing and for the inspiration we all draw from YOUR work.
Thanks for all of you notes that make me smile! If you have time check out my tryptic here! I am now working on another painting that is a quartet. What else,just creating like a house on fire! Janet
