RENZO (SEPT. 12 NOV. 21, 2015)

Canvas A Solid Thought III

Renzos paintings are opaque and have overlays, which are transparent in nature. Consequently, this forms mixture or fusion paint, portraying or expressing metaphorical or ornate and impressionistic form of art. In his paintings, Renzo uses very highly viscous paints, and this is due to the fact that the canvas he uses is of a distinctive nature. In this, he has layers overlapped together in a process of creation and illustrated archaic profundity. The painting portrays and represents an analogy/symbol and elements of love, purpose, desire, ambition, aspirations or even figurative similes. The painting is expressive, artsy and its through brush strokes. Abrading and scuffing the canvass veneer so as to come up with an intrinsic elemental inherent character. Its deceptive an illusory.

Genesis 1, 2014, 31 * 28

The basis of Genesis 1 is a sequence and succession of squared paper sections that are extended over so as to cover partly. These paper sections are torn and embedded together forming aging veneers of open airs street posters worn out by long exposure to the air. The painting has jagged fringes and these accentuate and deepen the uneven and irregular collage characteristic of the entire arrangement. The painter uses heavy brushstrokes, which commence forming up in an artistic manner, characterized by qualities of color, stroke and texture rather than of line. They are placed both vertically (upright) or horizontally and as such, this provides a plush and congenial reposing position for a number of items attached to the veneer. Muss also uses some small parts of a mosaic/ ornamented and tessellated metal. There is also a spray painted zone, which adds to the painting a fascinating complementary silhouette (shadow). Present is also a stick of balls of cotton which are placed precisely away from the vines and this gives the painting a natural look. There is also a horseshoe stationed exactly at the left corner just at the bottom and this, according to the painter, portrays good fortune. There is an overall harmony to the painting
