DANIEL PHILL: ABOUND
May 18 - June 22, 2019
Artist Reception: Saturday, May 18th, 5-8pm
PRESS RELEASE
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Picture
George Billis Gallery LA is pleased to present "Abound," the gallery's sixth solo exhibition of abstract botanical paintings by Daniel Phill. The exhibition features the artist's recent paintings and continues through June 22nd.

Daniel Phill reconstructs nature - attempting to find order in what appears to be chaos.  Plants, flowers and vegetation appear and vanish into the picture plane, often submerged under layers of pigment and washes.  Phill uses non-traditional painting tools and a fluid application of paint to create his intensely colorful and sensuous works. In each painting, the artist’s use of color activates the illusion of space and light to produce an atmosphere simultaneously serene and full of energy.  He deconstructs the natural environment and then reconstructs it using an improvised painterly expressionism. Through his powerful gestures, Phill creates work that is organic and unrehearsed and deftly walks the line between order and chaos.

Daniel Phill received an MFA from Stanford University in 1983 after completing his BFA at the San Francisco Art Institute. He has exhibited extensively across the United States.  Daniel Phill has been featured in many publications, including: Wall Street International, ARTnews magazine, Art in America magazine, California Home+Design magazine, New Yorker, Los Angeles Times, Art & Antiques Magazine, and Who's Who in the West, among others.    

Daniel Phill's work is in diverse public and private collections, including: Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, Tucson Museum of Art, Haggerty Museum of Art, de Saisset Museum, Citigroup, Clear Channel, Ernst & Young, GTE, Kimberly Clark, Morgan Stanley, Nordstrom, Pfizer, Sharper Image, Sprint, Stanford University, and US Department of State, among others.
