CHRISTOPHER SAUNDERS

Christopher Saunders's paintings and works on paper feature stacked rectangles filled with color gradients and sections of atmosphere.  His paintings are informed by collage, photography, the vertical stretches of streets, sidewalks, and tall buildings of Manhattan and the broad, horizontal swathes of farmland and blue sky of South Eastern Virginia.  Saunders paints separate rectangular sections of each overall work during distinct studio sessions.  In the end, the different sections almost line-up so that the entire painting can be perceived as one overall image. Saunders was born in Franklin, Virginia in 1972, and lives and works in Brooklyn, New York.  His works are included in the Fidelity Investments Corporate Art Collection, and the James Hotel, New York, NY, among others.
