Brian Kirchoff

A self-taught abstract artist based in the US; Brian Kirchoff creates visually interesting abstracts with an edge. His acrylic paint application methods rarely feature the brush, but instead squirt bottles, brayers, rags, spray paint, scrapers, fingers, palette knives and anything else he can find that adds interest to his paintings. His use of line, color field and concept speak specifically to humankind and its imprint on the natural world. Embracing the discovery process, his technique responds to the imperfect results of his application of paint on the canvas. His style is one that responds to each small step as the paint is laid down, taking him to new and interesting directions.
