Description & Details
I began painting this spot, roughly 100 yards from my home, in early June. However, I lost my way a couple weeks into it due to deep internal anger at a new neighbor whose property borders this one. His land, like all of ours, was heavily wooded, natural and home a great number of animals who created habitats adjacent to the stream that runs behind all of our homes...and he completely deforested it to put in a huge damn lawn! What an A-hole, and his callousness really kept me off balance. However, Mother Nature really brought me back to life this past Saturday when I was walking the area again and a majestic young buck literally burst out of the woods, crossed the stream and gently stood before me. He had no fear of me, and somehow I knew from his presence that everything was going to be ok. It was spiritually touching, and this enlightened painting is dedicated that deer and the sincere hope that he will grow up strong and come back to kick my neighbor in the head...then I will make another painting!
About the Artist: Jon Parlangeli

I relish the fact that there are no straight paths through the creative process. It’s never just a decision of the red pill or the blue pill, so I've blissfully spent years of studio time exploring mediums and methods of conveyance...all of which opine to the space between real and abstract. Standing over such processes is my chosen artistic signature, color. Born partially color blind I use color as a weapon of indelicacy often pushing beyond subtle yet achieving a cosmopolitan of sublime.
I grew up in and around Detroit, eventually attending and graduating from Wayne State University in 1994 with a BFA in painting. There, under the watchful eye of Detroit figures such as Peter Williams, Tom Parrish and Michal Luchs, I absorbed a true culture of artistry and independence that continues to inspire my work today.
My works have been shown in the US and internationally and have been placed within corporate and private collections throughout the US, Europe, Asia and the Middle East.
