Ruby Spray Painting
Ruby's exhibition is an exploration of multiple mediums and more specifically working with surface texture and applications. His concepts deal with violence and pressures in society, autobiography and art history. I admire Ruby taking on such a wide variety of materials and subjects and wish I could be at the show to see how it all comes together. I myself find my surface treatments to be similar to his, especially when it comes to how I apply paint. I normally work very abstracted or non-representational, and I admire the quality he is able to achieve in the painting below.
