The Tree (2020) 絵画 Oberlin The Artist によって

Oberlin has always been an artist, developing a love for fountain pens at an early age and deciding to train both hands to draw. They had heard adults talk about a spooky thing called ‘arthritis’. The artist is now ambidextrous.

Oberlin began having seizures and was diagnosed with epilepsy during their freshman year of college. Art helped tremendously.  A few of the paintings are works completed during absence seizures.

Some of Oberlin’s paintings come from sketches. Some of the paintings are scenes and shapes that mutate from color. The commonality is expression. The sketches themselves come from dreams and conversations. Some of these ideas have ruminated for months or years. Others happened in a flash.

This Millennial lives in the middle of nowhere, lurking in the dark and washing out their soup cans to recycle. Oberlin is a digital-minimalist (We prefer soft-covers) and would rather be bowling than looking at a phone. Bowling, pulling weeds or going to the dentist. Really! Oberlin also has a mild (not mild) case of scopophobia - Photos are a source of anxiety. Any time someone holding  a device (It may take a photos or it may be a broken Gameboy) turns a few degrees toward the artist and *HALT* Hands Go Up. Priorities, right? Maybe a dozen pictures exist since college graduation, only one or two showing a face (*shiver).  

Any of the art that you see may have since been painted over, traded, donated, given away, eaten, burned, buried or destroyed.
