Art: T.Scott Stromberg
While reading a post on the Geniant blog recently, I noticed it stated that the author could be found during his time off "relaxing in his studio while listening to classic jazz and attacking a freshly primed canvas with a palette and paintbrush." I rarely (OK, never) find art I enjoy when following leads from tech blog sidebars, but I must have been in an optimistic mood. My Google search paid off when I found the great abstract paintings by T.Scott Stromberg. He talks about them in his bio:
The Swirling Eddies are created by first using a squeegee to apply the initial under painting. Then a pinstripping brush is used to create the spontaneous swirls. I then fill in the negative space with texture and color blends. The process of creating this work is very primitive, cathartic and divine. I feel the results are powerful. I am hoping to increase the scale of this work in the near future.From my own dabblings in abstract art, I understand his feelings. I may have to get a pinstripping brush to experiment with myself.

I appreciate the post and I appreciate your thoughts on my art. I have recently veered a bit away from the Swirling Eddies and went bak into some more figurative abstracts...likewise, you'd get a kick out of the hand-drawn wireframes I did for my last two clients...sometimes its hard to keep the fine art out of the tech world. When you do go looking for a pin-striping brush try the squirrel hair version.
