Austin Allen James is an artist, designer, poet, educator, and father of two. He works in crushed pigments, oils, acrylic, resins and mixed media. The art is ethereal and organic by nature. His contemporary abstract style captures energy and color in harmonious compositions. Austin says, “My mission in art is to continue the tradition of the color field and lyrical abstractionist painters of the 20th century and contribute to the development of form through experimentation with techniques and materials.”
