“My art is never about the paint. Or the canvas. It’s always about digging deep enough to stir the soul.”
Newel Hunter has emerged as a new-style action painter whose Art is suffused with drama and vitality. With a rare level of skill and a complex methodology, he paints with a contrasting muscularity and deliberateness to produce art that is boldly elegant, contemplative, contemporary and impossible to ignore. Every image is a whole body exercise in storytelling.
Hunter’s Art is widely represented in collections within and outside the U.S. He has exhibited extensively in regional and national juried shows and consistently appears in curated international art magazines.
He was named Abstract Painter of the Year in Art Comes Alive 2021, one of the largest national juried art exhibitions in the United States.
