Another compelling painter of urban life today, Brett Amory.
There’s something of Kanevsky about some of his marks, but his compositions feel a bit more illustrational with their clear opposition of figure and (often white) ground.
I can’t say I know anything about him, but I like his work, and if you like it too you should go to his show in San Francisco.
I agree, a bit like Kanevsky, real sense of cold, disconnected, isolation in urban spaces. Can’t say as it leaves me with the warm and fuzzy’s about his work though, I tend to want to feel the connections between people and not the disconnections.
