Jon Mess

Lately I've been becoming more and more interested with art thats not Cartoons. I've been being drawn in by more "Abstract" artwork. I don't know if it's because I'm becoming older or more mature, I'm not entirely sure. But I'm finding out that I find that these paintings are more interesting.

I found out about Jon Mess through an Alternative Press magazine article which is a music magazine. I listen to his band, Dance Gavin Dance, and I had no idea that he was a freelance artist. Especially an Artist that uses oil paints and paints very abstract pieces. His painting just really draw me in, they're just so interesting to me. The colors that he uses, the amount of build up of the paint on the canvas, the way he puts the paint on the canvas. 

This one of my favorites from his Etsy, where you can buy his paintings.  If i could have put all of my favorites on here I would. The reason why I love this one so much is the backstory idea that I get from the painting and the colors. The green and dark reds just make it look eerie and almost disturbing and I love that.

I highly recommend looking at his others ( I suggest: France, Donutgod, ActRad )
