Edward Longo

Edward Longo’s energetic paintings do not conform to classification. His abstract expressionisms possess a modern sensibility in color and style while his paintings retain an organic, often primal conceptualization of the natural world. In describing his process Longo states, “I paint forms and shapes according to spiritual intervention. With the harmony of a musical concert the colors and rhythms complement each underlying theme.” He has a fantastic imagination that springs forth emotion, much like the tides of his invigorating muse, the sea. With consistent invention he will paint expressively with brush or palette knife as he embellishes the canvas, manifesting forms with vivid colors using a fervent freedom of expression.

Longo’s development as an artist includes education at Porter School of Design and Wilcox Architectural School proceeded by a fifteen-year career in drafting and design. Contributing to his growing reputation, Longo's work has been frequently exhibited in prominent galleries, hotels, and public spaces around New York City. Longo lives and works in Manhattan.
