Geppe's paintings act like a zoom lens capturing the splendor of the aurora borealis. In great curtains of color, he folds in light and dark. Each work exhibits usually two standout colors such as pink and orange or turquoise and purple that pierce through a heavier backdrop of black or neutral tone. Oftentimes white blots over these colors the way rust or mold would, giving the paintings a timeworn look. Geppe's impulsive lines are in the vein of abstract expressionism. Though no figures can be perceived, each painting is titled after a concept such as Intuition, Cozy, or Centered. The viewer interprets the meaning and feeling behind each painting by the combination of colors and size of the stalactite-like lines gripping the canvas. Geppe's works create sensational moods from their palette and style alone.
Born in Venezuela, Geppe currently resides in the United States. His art supports such non-profit organizations as Nashville Cares, The Rape and Sexual Abuse Center, American Humane Association, American Cancer Society, Hurricane Katrina Relief, and The National Multiple Sclerosis Society.
