Sean Mick

Sean Mick is an emerging mixed media artist that interprets what we can’t see. Using a language of line, form, color and scale he creates “portraits” of subjects, emotions, relationships and ideals. With a strong influence of geometric abstraction, color field, and hard edge painters such as Rothko, Albers, Cruz-Diez, Soto, Bridget Riley, Frank Stella, and Ellsworth Kelly Mick’s work looks to interpret subjects and intangible elements such as emotions or states-of-being using hard edge and color as predominant elements. Using non-planar compositional surfaces he uses an array of painting techniques and masking to arrive at a precise execution. Not bound by paint alone, he has explored the sculptural aspect, evident in the forms themselves, to create fiber interpretations of the work. Mick has spent his career in the commercial arts and publishing world within newspapers, commercial printing and color correction/proofing, illustration, book builder and ultimately as an I.T. Director for a educational development company with offices in New York, Boston, Maryland and Texas. He currently works exclusively on his art practice.
