 Bob Melzmuf
New York painter Bob Melzmuf works in the tradition of the 1950's Abstract Expressionists. "I enjoy the idea that by painting I am connecting to its whole history. I can identify with this lineage; it spans centuries." The artist's layers drips, strokes and splatters of oil-based color to his canvas to create a feeling of depth. Melzmuf studied at the Hartford Art School, and presently exhibits his work in New York City.
