R. R. Lyon

Bold and raw to subdued and graceful, R.R. Lyon's
art is imbued with messages
of hope and the beauty of the imperfect
as well as a very visible physical process.
Through line, collage, stencil
and brushstrokes his works on canvas and
cast acrylic incorporate iconic
and personal imagery as well as text, pattern and rich color fields.
"For many years I asked all the questions before
I ever began a new painting. Now I am content
to just follow my inspirations,
make the work and then ask what it means.
I have discovered that I enjoy
simply participating in the process. I am currently exploring the dynamic
of singular moments
that when combined, form a larger statement. I am
still drawn to themes of reconciliation,
redemption and reclamation
as I document my days with paint, canvas, glass and questions.
It seems
the older I get, the less I know. The less I know the more I want to
paint." R.R. Lyon.
