Hang Over

                             Fred Tomaselli
    The artist I chose is named Fred Tomaselli.  He was born in 1956 in Santa Monica, California. He graduated from Orange High School and went to California State University, Fullerton. In 1982, he graduated with a B.A in painting and drawing. In order to paint,  he uses thick layer of clear, epoxy resin on wood panels. He prefers painting on the floor. Fred Tomaselli currently lives and works in Brooklyn, New York. One reason I chose this artist is because I liked his paintings. At a glance, they look colorful and sparkly. I believe this is because of the black background he usually uses. He adds a lot of intricate designs to the objects in his artworks.
