Jeff Kowatch (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9782370742414)

Kowatch's demanding yet subtle technique combines glazing from the Old Masters with the Abstractionists' controlled use of color

Los Angeles-born, Brussels-based painter Jeff Kowatch (born 1965) builds up to 100 layers of paint on his canvas, which he then scrapes and sands to create calm yet deep compositions filled with bubbling swaths of color.
