Drew Eurek
Drew Eurek is an artist from Northern Illinois who works in abstract expressionism using oil paint and charcoal on canvas. He has actively studied and painted for 20 years in the Northern Illinois area. His works play with color and form and are layered to show his progress from start to finish. Childhood experiences, as well as vintage film and magazines, are incorporated into his works to create a unique and exciting approach to each painting. Each piece strives to evoke emotion and a sense of familiarity in the viewer. Playing with shape and form, his work imposes joyful overtones with dark or deep subtext. His overall goal is to push the abstract and inner expressionism into a type of communication or feeling, yet also appealing to core human sexuality and attraction. Drew draws his inspiration from childhood nostalgia, pin-up art, and Technicolor film.
