The Rocko is piece number 44 in AJ's Canvas Collection. This piece was created during a time where AJ was learning more and drawing inspiration from the works of Mark Rothko. The purpose of learning more about Rothko and creating this piece was for AJ to get a better understanding of how Rothko's works captured the viewer. The idea wasn't to copy Rothko's style but to incorporate his rectangular regions of color in a way where it could be understood from AJ's point of view. AJ describes it as, "While color provides you with the feeling you get, the emotion felt,  the experience from the piece of art. The shapes are what allow you into the experience. A space left open for you to go inside. Once inside the color and shapes together give you a perception of the piece of work. In order to experience what the artist is expressing within their painting, perception is what is most important." The title itself comes from a combination of Rothko's name with AJ's love and inspiration he found in the rocks.

AJ Rojas is a contemporary American artist. Motivated by the gestural approach of Abstract Expressionism, AJ draws influence from the Surrealist and Dada movements of the early 20th century in an effort to replicate the unconscious mind's immediate expression. Always drawing inspiration from organic forms and natural life, in line with Biomorphism's intuitive approach. Based on the aforementioned, AJ identifies as an abstractionist painter whose work lies in the liminal space between abstraction and surrealism, where the viewer's mind can conjure up a variety of interpretations.

Occasionally experimenting with geometric abstraction, AJ usually starts by randomly placing straight or irregular lines on the canvas. Following the initial line insertion, he examines the random lines from his own distinct vantage point to uncover the secret pictures he conjured from his mind. Once the eye-catching lineaments are apparent, he carefully shapes them into color before adding them to the canvas.

The artist claims that leaving a door open for the viewer to shape their own experience with his art is a crucial aspect of his work. He has always believed that the viewpoint of the observer in regards to his paintings is just as important as his own.
