Heroes and Villains

About

Harrison Gilman's large original artworks begin with a layer of fast-paced gestural abstraction followed by organic shapes and geometric structures. Some of his paintings remain in the purely dreamlike abstract stage, while others develop into deliberate characters, shapes, and symbols. They are landscapes and portraits of the artist's subconscious, developed into individual stories on canvas.

This one-of-a-kind 72-inch tall by 60-inch wide original artwork is stretched, wired, and ready to hang. The sides of this artwork are painted and it does not require framing. It is signed by the artist on the front and back of the painting. Free local Los Angeles area delivery. Affordable Continental U.S. and worldwide shipping are available. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included.

Gilman's paintings reveal the freedom to trust one's instincts. They offer the viewer their own interpretation of their own truth about what they are seeing in his artworks, Gilman exposes things buried beneath the surface of his mind. "It’s so easy to get caught up in the material world and all the distractions and what we think we’re feeling and what we should be feeling versus whatever is actually going on." With a set of straight and curved lines, he builds a mysterious haze of inner feelings on canvas in a balanced and harmonious way.
