I wanted bright, bold color. It was my mood in the dead of winter! In this work hot pops of variegated detail wrestle one another (in warm and cool tones) creating an easy flow throughout the composition.

I wanted bright, bold color. It was my mood in the dead of winter! In this work hot pops of variegated detail wrestle one another (in warm and cool tones) creating an easy flow throughout the composition. I was definitely looking to pop the magenta suit in this work. I wanted to give it some texture and dimensionally ground the color into the canvas. To do this I utilized agitatedly expressive linework to create a sense weight, of slightly surreal movement, of a breathe caught forever in time.
These works are the culmination of my experimentations between figurative and landscape/floral, and are a perfect representation of how I see the essence of humanity as it pertains to our limited time here. Ashes to ashes so to speak, and for a few of us who are a bit more empathic to the planet they say more about our link to all that is nature and life.

To Michigan artist Jon Parlangeli there is no other path but to constantly ask and then answer questions via different modalities within his medium. This leads to new explorative bodies of work offering differing styles, genres, or techniques that satiate his curiosity for the real and the abstract. Parlangeli uses both nature and figure as his muse often jostling between them during studio sessions in an effort to solve internal conundrums exposed during session. Standing over such processes is his artistic signature, color. Born partially color blind, Parlangeli uses color as his weapon of indelicacy often pushing beyond subtle yet achieving a cosmopolitan of sublime.

Parlangeli has placed works within corporate and private collections throughout the US, Europe, Asia and the Middle East and his works have been shown in the US and internationally.
