The Paintings of Holton Rower

I just found this guy by accident - a quite, happy accident.

My initial experience was with his paintings. A cousin of "drip" paintings of Pollock, these are "pour" paintings. The work is rich and sugary eye candy, but admittedly, I enjoy watching the process slightly more.


The colors moving down along the shaped canvas is the real experience. Gravity, inertia and the contours of the structure move the paint along until it runs out of power. These pieces are somewhere in between paintings and sculpture.
