| BIO The light in Provincetown, the beach at Sandy Hook, the Eiffel Tower and a vase of flowers; all disparate places, people and things that inspire Richard Stabbert to paint.
All of his images are tied together by a sensuality of brushstroke. He limits his palette to evoke spare, almost graphic forms, as color in itself and line have a resonance and symbolism for Stabbert.
Even when he paints a recognizable image there is a blurring into abstraction.
Born in Red Bank in 1959, Stabbert is a self-taught painter. He documents the people in his life, both past and present, a vase of flowers in his home, travels to Europe, and the beach.
His art has been displayed at Asbury Art (Asbury Park, New Jersey), Brookdale Free Art Exhibit (Brookdale Community College), Susan Berke Fine Arts in Red Bank, APEX Gallery (Asbury Park) and Kathleen Cullen Fine Arts in New York. | | | |
