Artist Statement

Downs' style of art embodies the characteristics of abstract expressionism, which emphasizes free, spontaneous, and personal emotional expression through brush strokes.

He exercises considerable freedom in his technique and execution to attain the end goal; to complete his vision. Downs uses color theory, composition and application of paint as a potent exploration his passion.

His painting process invokes a zestful and vivid interplay between shapes, figures and color in a playful yet sensuous ways. He aims to speak to his audience by including hints of symbolism in his pieces.

His brush stokes start visual dialogue between viewer and the canvas and viewer can translate what ever they may in each piece.
