Essence departing

Essence Departing

Piece description from the artist

Painting is one of the only true passions/hobbies that Benjamin has developed in his life, and because of the sense of accomplishment and satisfaction it brings him, he knows it's something he'll always do. Here a tree with red leaves disintegrates on canvas. Torn handwritten paper notes line the background and are covered over in oil paint

This is a TurningArt exclusive limited edition print available in editions of 100.

About Ben Kelley

Saint Louis, MO

Ben Kelley is a St. Louis-based artist whose work has been featured locally, in various offices and local art fairs, as well as internationally, notably for his cover art published on famed Dutch writer Nescio’s Titaneller.

I'm a fan of both experimentation and variety. Not surprisingly, my paintings often vary in theme from conceptual and meaningful, to colorful and expressive. I enjoy the discovery part of the creative process and how to communicate and connect with viewers through a visual medium. Often times, when I feel that I've accomplished a form of communication in a particular fashion, I end up challenging myself to find a new way to express an idea or emotion. It's this challenge that keeps me motivated and why I know my passion for artistic expression will always fuel my desire to create.
