Gregg Renfrow
Northern California based artist Gregg Renfrow uses minimal color to produce luminescent paintings on cast acrylic surfaces.
Since his graduation from the San Francisco Art Institute in the mid 1970′s Renfrow has produced subtle light infused paintings. Renfrow creates his illusionistic pieces by pouring thin uninterrupted washes of color onto acrylic supports – allowing each thin layer to set without obvious manipulation. Each completed panel is hung slightly away from the wall allowing light to reflect off of and through the paintings. This precise use of materials results in paintings that appear to float on the wall capturing and encasing light and color.
