Bold, with a touch of eccentricism – Gary Petersen’s paintings are a treat for anyone looking to see geometric abstracted painting with a humanistic touch. The painter utilizes fresh and interesting color combinations in his lively compositions, of which he states, “my longtime interest in early 20th century abstraction and the notion of the ‘cosmic’ merges with a California/pop sensibility.” Living and working in New York City, he deliciously bridges the continental divide between that California cool and East Coast prep.
