This week, we talk with abstract artist, Abraham Darlington!
Abraham Darlington is originally from Philadelphia, PA. He has always had an interest in art, especially tattoo art; but, was not until he developed a shoulder injury that he began to pursue his artistic interests. Abraham has no formal art training, except for taking a small number of courses at The Baum School of Art at a young age. Everything he creates has been through hard work, experimentation, imagination, and the sounds of rock music.
Abraham's work does not follow a specific style or school of thought when he creates art. He enjoys all styles and mediums, but has a proclivity for street, graffiti, abstract, minimalist, and cubist art. His paintings are typically created spontaneously and quickly being completed within a sitting or two. He uses all types of tools including brushes, palette knives, spatulas, combs, sponges, spray paints, stencils, even his own hands.
