This painting is a variation on some of the series I have been working on in the past months and the third in a new series. All of these paintings led me to create these new pieces that are truly a step further into the world of deep, vibrant color, texture and beauty. This piece is simplistic in its arrangement, but very complex in it's color palette and variety of texture and line. Each color was chosen organically in a moment of emotional creation and fed off of the last and enhanced the next. This painting shines and shimmers in the light and is stunning in a clean white frame, enhancing any wall that or color schemed room it is hung on. Unlike "Wonderwall", this one ventures into the addition of discernible shapes within the wall. They function almost as a crack, or window through the wonderwall into the sublime.

Note: This painting is painted on wood and comes in a clean, white frame.

"I paint the light and dark within us all."

Artist Preston M. Smith (PMS Artwork) found himself cross-eyed and with no depth perception as a child. This was the "lens" through which he developed his unique visual perspective of the world, which he now shares as a painter. Before focusing completely on his visual artwork, Preston spent many years developing and expanding his creative mindset by acting professionally, touring and lead singing for a punk/ska band, and writing two novels as well as a collection of poetry and original paintings. All of this experience fed into his ability to access his creative voice and communicate his own experience. Over the years, Preston’s artwork has transitioned from moody pop surrealist paintings into vibrantly colorful, tactile, highly textured and almost "edible" abstract works. His mantra for his abstract work is "color, texture, beauty and decay", and his work and life have been an expression of moving from darkness into light. Preston’s work has been showcased alongside David Lynch and at the Inaugural Purple Ball for President Obama’s Inauguration in 2009, where he was commissioned to paint 12 portraits of the President. Very recently, Preston is coming off of a successful Solo Exhibition at ShockBoxx Gallery in Hermosa Beach California and his first two showings at the LA Art Show in Downtown L.A.. His work has also been selected by a panel of curators as a winner in the 1st 2018 ArtSlant Artprize Showcase and has been on display at the world famous La Luz De Jesus Gallery, and in numerous exhibitions throughout Los Angeles and across the country. Preston's work has also been the subject of a documentary short entitled "Negativity To Creativity" and is in more than 450 private collections around the world as well in the homes of celebrities such as Ed Harris, Ashley Judd, Josh Lucas, and so forth.
