NEWEL HUNTER
The reduction of color in Hunter's work intensifies the impact of the application, where each mark upon the canvas leaves a spectral trace, like an exoskeleton waiting for flesh. This can be seen in his 'Tales of Dark and Light' collection, which feature translucent forms with only hints of substance and color, dancing upon deep black surfaces in the artist's unique calligraphic style.
Hunter's artworks are widely represented in collections within and outside the U.S. He has exhibited extensively in regional and national juried shows and has been featured in major international publications.
