About this artwork
I've been exploring pattern in my work recently, and how a repeated simple way of making a mark can lead to larger structural forms in a composition. Suddenly it becomes meaningful if something is missing. A member of a group can be defined by how it is different from its neighbors. A larger framework can be implied by the repetition of a few key elements.
In this painting I have worked two modes of pattern making into the composition alongside… some of my other usual modes of mark making including scribbling with markers and pouring paint directly onto the canvas. The two forms of patterns are the trellis and the vine. The trellis pattern is composed of members of a grid which exist on a shared euclidean plane, which warps and bends in places. The vine pattern is leaves growing out of leaves to form branching fractal patterns. Both exist in this painting in different scales and different media.

« My work is an attempt to suggest possible ways of being. It is a self conscious offering of answers while knowing that answers do not exist. »
Established American artistic Blake Brasher favors a messy, colorful and abstruct style of painting to offer his viewers alternative explanations into possible ways of being. Not satified with conventional explanations of why things are how they are, Blake's vibrant and sometimes brashy works provide a place for meditative thought, or, ideally, no thought at all.
Blake has honed his artistic talents through a number of residencies both in his native America and Europe. His works have featured in numerous solo and group exhibitions in the United States.
