Edition
My connection to nature in abstraction is rooted in the ‘emergence’ of color as it appears to me in unexpected hues and layers. These paintings are part of a series done with acrylic on canvas with rollers, sponges and palette knife. Most importantly the movement and composition are the result of letting the paint find its own places with me guiding the process.

About Howard Ziff

I was lucky, my father whose own father was an accomplished artist himself encouraged me and put me into the Art Students League at an early age. From there I got to study with noted instructors and found my expression. As you can see from my resume my journey was interupted by modern life and I was not ready to commit. When I did commit and changed circumstances allowed me to find my voice again after a long hiatus, I realized that my inner life had overtaken me and my art had to be my roadmap. So what does my painting signify; first of all it is the amalgem of my experience knowing the greats for me Matisse to Pollock to Mitchell and second how do I encompass that experience and...

Artist Statement

My abstract expressionist painting stems from my immersion into the natural world and the elimination of boudaries. My intention is to express my inner self reaction to the world around me as iI experience it. The main basis of my work is the layering of color primarily with movement and depth. I picture myselfas part of the painting looking out at the viewer and myself.
