Newell Book # 10 Miami
This notebook is the 1st part of a series of drawings and paintings created in 2020. Inspired by the elements Newell creates a graphic and colorful universe representative of the city of Miami. He plays with techniques to create illusion, and deals with realistic, abstract, and minimalist subjects. Miami as a playground for the artist offers multiple subjects to create drawings and paintings:
“First comes the look, the framing, the shapes, the colors, the photo shots. Then follows the transformation, the reinterpretation, the painting, the lights, the materials, the contrast, the impression. Then come the association, the composition, the dialogue of forms and subjects that tells a story between memory and abstract forms.”
