This new abstract painting appears to be Adam Cohen’s homage to the extraordinary colours the human eye sees in the glow of the northern lights—green, purple, blue, pink and white.

The American artist is known for his lush abstract work characterized by a masterful use of colour and a grand gestural style.

“Colour is a wild animal. Seventy-five percent of your concentration is taken up by colour.” Adam Cohen

He studied at Philadelphia’s Tyler School of Art and lived and painted in Rome for a year. After many successful years as an illustrator, he returned to his first love--painting. Adam Cohen lives and paints in the Catskills, NY. Cohen has exhibited extensively in the US, Europe, Asia and most recently in Amsterdam and Venice.
