The artwork of C.J. Collins.

My friend, Marco, introduced me to the work of C.J. Collins. Collins is a New York based artist and her work is absolutely stunning. The work involves minimal materials, Kraft paper and vinyl, to create beautiful abstract compositions that evoke many emotions.

At times Collins work has inspiration from the chaotic linework of Basquiat, the energy of Stuart Davis, and the compositional quality of Jean Dubuffet but it has a contemporary feel that grounds it within todays modern art world.

Keith Haring.

Keith Haring never interested me much in the 80's. I would skate by Pop Shop on Lafayette Street and never give it a second look. Not only until years later did I realize how amazing his work was. He touched on every serious subject at the time but in a way that made it less gloomy. His playful characters and signature thick brush strokes were graphically perfect and his canvas was any blank wall in his path. He is the original pop street artist and you can see his influence all over the walls of the city today.

Harings' work has had a lasting impact on both the art world, the graphic design world, and the fashion world. He is the definition of pop art.
