Louis Mason, Painter - Lanning Gallery [Sedona Arizona]

An art critic from the Arizona Republic newspaper wrote: “Mr. Mason revels in testing the boundaries of perception. He creates two-dimensional images which veer slightly off center. The exaggeration of scale of his figurative images suggests a stylistic primitivism often associated with narrative folk art. Mr. Mason’s paintings run a bit amok but are full of joy. Another critic called his work “gutsy, whimsical and compositionally interesting.?

Louis Mason himself says: “I’ve always admired children’s art, especially the drawings and paintings made by youngsters in the second or third grade. They are so uninhibited and free and full of joyful colors. So here I am in my golden years trying to create paintings that are similar to those that a seven or eight year old might do. I made my living as a teacher and author of business subjects but I’ve been drawing, sketching, doodling and painting (it seems) my whole life. When I retired as a teacher I started the Kindergarten Art Studio and I’ve been lucky.?

Louis Mason’s work is held by private and corporate collectors on four continents.
