From Trent\'s \'Dazzling Tree Collection\' III, IV, the touch of these charming trees are delightful to lift the mood in any space. Altman painted these acrylic pieces placing up to 20 multiple layers. Altman used multiple tools to create this piece: paint brush for acrylic paint, scraper tools to scrape gel medium mixed with some paint, spray paint that he creates using medium and acrylic paint.

To finalize the pieces, Altman added mixed media. Most mixed media are originally made by him. He also intermingled his original mixed media with glass and sprinkles to form the Dazzling Tree paintings. He used a fixative to adhere the mixed media in place for your satisfaction. Trent only uses paints and medium that are of high quality.Altman is an internationally and nationally award winning autistic artist of the United Nations (See Bio)

The paintings are displayed in a black contemporary wooden frame, 17.5 x 17.5 We placed clear non-glare plexiglass over the mat for protection and to allow the beautiful texture of the paintings to be revealed.

Artist Statement

“In my studio, on tables in my backyard, or on the beach on a sunny day, give me the opportunity and I will spring into the most genuine pleasure I know: painting.

Standing in front of a clean canvas, I consider with anticipation and choose from many different color options. Once I feel compelled, I take a deep breath and begin. I feel my way with a brush or other tools swiping the canvas. When I capture a pure emotion, I revel with a burst of excitement, my voice rumbles, or I may hum or sing. While scraping the jagged surface, I get more enthusiastic from moment to moment until my canvas has been completely finished to my expectations.”

Altman’s artis aninterpretation of matter whileconsuming his Environmental senseof sight, sound and scents. Hispaintings are beyond bold anddramatic. Altman’s use of multiple layers, and his distinctive style result in a monumental flow of intimately muted colors and 3 dimensional textures on canvas, writes Dr. Rosa Martinez.

“The paintings of autistic artistTrent Altmanare richly evocative of the experience of being outdoors: the roughness of sand, the salt of a sea breeze, and the blue of a cloudless sky can all be deeply felt in his work. It’s no surprise, then, that Altman is most inspired by the beauty in nature. By employing sumptuous pigments and experimenting with unconventional materials to create texture, Altman conveys his own experiences in a clear and direct way that demands the attention of his audience.” writes Agora Gallery, NYC
