About this artwork
I painted “Bassline” in 2014. A string bass player lays down the bass-line for a jazz standard in a club on Columbia Road. His fingers stroll easily down the neck of the bass as he smoothly plucks the strings in cool time. With his ear pressed close to his instrument, the bassist absorbs the notes of a B-flat scale into his soul with thorough feeling and intensity.

David Ralph
United States
David Ralph is a contemporary artist who lives in Greenbelt, Maryland, USA. About twenty-five years ago, David had a vision to create a series of abstract watercolor paintings that explored the female figure through curve, line, and a composition of varying shapes of color, value, and pattern. This exploration led to a distinctive style that has shaped David’s unique brand of painting ever since. In trying to describe and categorize his style of art, David Ralph has coined the term “Geoformism”. According to David, Geoformism is defined as a style of contemporary abstract art that focuses on the form of a subject (or object) and its underlying geometric essence. It contains elements of both geometric abstraction and figurative realism. Today, David continues to create abstract compositions of the female figure as well as other themes of interest such as nature, music, landscape, sports, politics/people, and cityscapes.
