Mick Reinman

Mick Reinman has been described as a painter's painter. Mick lives and works in Ojai, California. He attended Chouinard Art Institute and has been a working artist and painter for 25 years, using his drawing and painting skills to work in the entertainment industry on movies, advertising and commercials.  

Mick Reinman's latest series of paintings explore the complex internal drama of the human spirit. Reinman uses the primal act of painting, to create geo-organic forms that depict the universality of human emotions. Seduction, passion, aggression and resolution can all be seen in this work. He attacks the large, birch ply surfaces, working and reworking oil paints and resins, in order to express honest, immediate feelings in a raw and powerful way. These abstract images address the existential struggles that we all face, on both personal and global levels.
