“Block Party” is part of the Elements of Touch series by Visual Artist Grey Cross.   It is a 44″ x 54″ wrapped canvas. It uses acrylics and tile as its primary mediums.  This is one of the artists favorite pieces because of the motion that the piece invokes. Its difficult to see the movement in a photo, but standing in front of it, the piece swirls inward towards the hand.

Grey Cross’s “Elements of Touch” series embodies the artists need to create art that is not only seen but allows for the viewer to reach out and make the art real through touch. He believes that art hidden behind displays cases is only allowing the viewer to satisfy one of their senses but that art can satisfy all the senses. Utilizing mixed media such as painting, sculpture, and photography in his pieces he creates a potent blend of art that is sure to spark the imagination of the viewers.

The piece is available for purchase. $1,000.00 plus shipping and handling. The piece is on view at the artists studio in New Orleans, Louisiana. Contact Grey Cross Studios for more information greyacross@aol.com
