The Painting Center is pleased to present the solo exhibition of Scott Wixon titled Rabbit and Other Tails. Wixon’s fascination with color, quirky shapes and gestures define his personal vocabulary. His style gives pride of place to movement and undulations. As he puts it: "When I start a new painting, I have a preliminary idea. My structure develops as I go along, reacting to what has come before. I feel confident that I can totally trust my intuition and make the right decisions."
