Rob Stolzer - Paintings & Drawings

Most of the paintings presented here are based upon the figure in some way, shape or form. Some works are my interpretation of elements of the body's interior, while others reference the figure in pod, sac, or Japanese zushi shrine forms. In the end, the process of creating the work informs the imagery most of all. The paintings work best when I allow the intuitive to outweigh the formal.
