Ed Moses and the excitement of the process
Californian artist, Ed Moses, explores all the possibilities of painting. Whether it is paper or canvas he works by series. Once he has exhausted the series, he continues with another idea of pattern or material, or both all together. What he likes most is the process of making paintings.
If the imagery through the series doesn’t “sign” the artist, there is a “style” Moses: the way he pushes the boundaries of painting is more his trademark. He has the ability to take a series very far up to a no-return point. Once it’s done, it’s over. And he continues searching something different, another excitement. BCh
