February 9 - Declan Halpin

I first saw Declan Halpin's work in the book Acrylic Revolution where his abstract work using circles captivated me. (I'm sure you're getting the circles theme throughout my artist choices!)

His work is featured in several galleries and on the Golden Paint website. As I learned more about his themes, I understood that the shapes he uses are abstract visual relationships of human interaction. What a cool concept.

One other thing that really stands out about Halpin's work is that his "canvas" (metal sheets) are not standard rectangles. I am drawn to the organic edges he uses to accentuate his painting.
