About

Chicago-based artist John Zilewicz makes mixed media abstract paintings inspired by the simplest of elements - line and color. The free flowing, untamed and often impulsive mark-making found within his artworks breathe life into his work, activating the space. These marks are unrehearsed, often repetitive, and overlapping, giving a sense of rhythm to the chaos. Intricate surface textures are created through the build up of transparent and opaque layers of paint.
