Ross Collado - ROSS

Ross Boa Collado is a self-taught abstract expressionism painter based in Seattle. Currently, his art showcases a minimalist style playing with the stark contrasts of depth and color. His distinctly unique earlier paintings consist of visceral creations portraying utopian and dystopian landscapes wrought with intense emotions and psychological solitude. In every piece, the appeal is universal while having a connection that is contemplative and highly personal. His art evokes feelings and experiences of a surreal world in the artist's mind. Over the years his works are intuitive and emotive expressions of acrylic on canvas. Making art for Ross is not therapeutic but rather a series of intense moments. "It's like I am walking through a creative tunnel of exploding colors and ideas waiting to come to life through a brush stroke." Firmly holding on to Leonardo Da Vinci's famous quote; "Art is never finished, only abandoned.", Ross fuels his passion with equal fervor for travel and exploration.
