Awareness Blooms

Artist: Don Faia
Media: Acrylic and Mica on Board

I began as a painter and evolved into a mixed media artist guided by processes and materials personally developed through exploration and experimentation. This creative
method has yielded a body of work that avoids pictorial representation in favor of concrete objects. These objects can range from mixed media on watercolor paper to three dimensional wood constructions. Much of this work focuses on tactile experience and surface illusion. Many of these objects are contemplative and mysterious, at once both known and unfamiliar. Experimentation and curiosity are the driving forces in my art making, guided by my intuition.

I continuously discover new processes which move me from one piece or series to another. This opens up the potential for all future work; the ever expanding dialogue with material and the unknown.
