Rob King Art

Surface Series

The Surface Series explores painting as a process of formation rather than depiction. Each work begins without a fixed image, emerging instead through action, material response, and successive decisions. Paint and texture are applied, obscured, removed, and reintroduced, allowing the surface to evolve through cycles of accumulation and reduction.

These paintings reference landscape without describing it. They suggest weathered terrain, erosion, and geological time, yet remain nonrepresentational. What matters is not what is shown, but how the surface arrives at its final state. Completion is not forced or polished into place; it is recognized when the work reaches equilibrium.

If you’re interested in a piece, a commission, or a collaboration, you can reach me.

I will accept offers to commission paintings created in the same visual language and spirit as my existing work. Each piece is developed as an original response to its moment, space, and process. For that reason, my art can be commissioned with a similar feel but no artwork is recreated exactly.

I do not offer prints. The connection between a human hand and a physical surface matters to me. A painting is a singular object built through time, material, and decision. Technology can generate images; what I make exists only once.
