Let painter Michael Dotson lead you through gateways to new worlds

Date

Very cool paintings here from Michael Dotson, whose practice really lives up to his name. As well as creating bored-in-maths style graph paper drawings, he also paints some very impressive interiors and abstract landscapes. Not a fan of the white space, Dotson fills his canvases with moquette-esque tirades of acrylic paint resembling, among other things, trippy bachelor-pads and gateways to new universes (or both, simultaneously).
