I strive to create art that allows the paint to reveal an unpredictable order, random patterns, and multiple processes that eventually emerge as unique imprints on the canvas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Abstract Expressionism contributed to the opening up of creative activity in the mid-20<sup>th<\/sup> century, facilitating a new era of change and modernity. I employ a 21-st century re-tooled and updated form of Abstract Expressionism that gives me a language to address burning contemporary issues. These include the way society has edged away from self-reliant creativity since the Covid pandemic and over dependence on AI expertise.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>James P Kinsella &#8211; 20.01.
