Description

Strange Mood In Funky Town by Bruce Granquist. Original Abstract Artwork.

As close to a perfect calligraphy painting as I have ever done (at least to my criteria). Composed of only 2 lines that could either be exploding or imploding.    ~ Bruce Granquist

Strange Mood In Funky Town by Bruce Granquist are fusion of calligraphy, pattern, and textures all combining and somehow revealing humour, observations and contemplations. In their surrender to the power of chance, they are never separate from spontaneous anomalies that occur during the process.

“Humanness is the active stance within the limits of forces larger than one’s self. It is the resignation and the light of being blown by the big wind while creating movements that express the individual’s unique flavour as a piece of broken symmetry.” ~Bruce Granquist
