Paul Senyol - Vibrant - Energetic - Optimistic
It was Wassily Kandinsky who said: “the more abstract the form, the clearer its appeal. The more an artist uses these abstracted
forms, the deeper and more confidently will he advance into the kingdom of the
abstract.” Upon viewing fellow Cape
Town based artist Paul Senyol’s vibrant works, those words deemed by many as the
“Father of Abstraction” seem to ring true indeed. At the moment he is using mainly water based
materials like acrylics and spray paints with some oil pastel and even crayon
details added for that naïve feel. Call
me crazy (and by all means no disrespect intended to those who did receive
formal artistic training…) but it just so happens that the work done by the self-trained artists just resonate with me on a more effervescent (and somewhat
familiar) level. You know – art that
just feels like home.
