ALPHABET OF A COLORED MAN

Each painting features a letter.

Some of the paintings show a dreamscape of colors, perspectives, and views like a glance out the window of an elevated subway train in NYC keeping the letter disguised in the juxtaposed perspectives.

Other paintings are more directly portraying the letter, referring to tagging, a distinct style in graffiti. 

All paintings of individual letters of the original conceived work series spell a phrase. The viewer is invited to search for the phrase.

This series presents the full circle of Dave Ortiz creative trajectory from street art to fine art painting.
