Contemporary abstract paintings by Devin Lake.

The artworks of Devin Lake are influenced by the aesthetics of Tribal & Native American art, as well the graphic sensibilities of Graffiti and other similar forms of art.

Devin's approach to painting, both in his themes and technique, focuses on improvisation. The concepts behind each painting are dependant on Devin allowing himself to express a stream of consciousness directly on to the canvas. This approach is perfectly complemented by Devin's use of colour, which is mixed and explored on the surface of the canvas.

Artist's Statement

"My work involves the creation of conceptually based shapes and colours. Hard edges and abstracted shapes are a predominant feature in all of my work. I use shape, texture and colour to create movement in a dynamic composition that captures and sustains the interest of the viewer.

I draw inspiration from Tribal and Native American designs as well as Graffiti and other similar art forms. Most often my designs come straight from my head and are based upon no other inspiration than the thoughts roaming around my mind.

I try to establish a marriage of concepts in my work, creating artworks that are minimal and have a powerful impact on the viewer. My work is intended to evoke emotion, ask a question or tell a story in the most minimal way possible."

Technique

"All of my work is completed using a combination of various different mediums. I use a process of layering oil and acrylic paint, as well as pastels and coloured pencil.

This technique allows me to make subtle changes to the colours and textures in my paintings. I prefer to mix most of my colours on the canvas, applying changes in pigment through a layering process rather than on the pallet.

I produce work that is two-dimensional as well as pieces of relief sculpture."
