Philip Womack is an emerging artist rooted in Southern California aesthetic and tradition. Regionalism is evident in his work as an organic design and palette conjure up local coast and canyon. A classical figurative drawing and painting education has been a launching point for works that explore a selective view of art history and the continued dialogue of painting.
Working primarily in acrylic paints, Womack is “… fascinated by presence, delineations, interaction, and the subsequent organization of compositions realized… ideas of allowance, conviction, nuance, subversion, and performance. The creative context of these works are as far reaching as geographical location to social climate. Focus plays a determined role as the work is constructed into a sort of visual diary or conscious map. The results are products of imitation, meditation, and experience.” His hope is that “viewers will bring their own signature history and personality to complete the ‘trialogue’ between creator, creation, and observer.”
