Fascinated by color, Buddy Whitlock uses the abstract to forge a bridge between his escapist past and artistic present. He cedes control to the paint and obsesses over the curious movements his art may take based on how colors work together or fight against each other. An Arkansas native with a 25-year career in adolescent psychiatry, he is guided by color trends and remains a man uninhibited by rules or preconceived notions. Buddy experiments with intriguing textures, unique materials, and contrasting blends that defy the conventional conception of beauty to evoke an emotional response.
