ABOUT VINCENT KEELE
My Story
Hello, I'm Vincent Keele, a multidisciplinary artist based in Washington. I'm known for my vibrant, bold, and rhythmic abstracts and figurative works that have been celebrated on a global stage. My art has a unique ability to capture forgotten stories and evoke a sense of remarkable abstract movements.
As a second-generation expressionist painter, I call Washington my home, where I immerse myself in creating paintings that are all about movement, energy, and the play of luminous light. My artistic approach places cognitive thinking at the forefront, inviting viewers to embark on a journey of discovery with each piece. I blend expressionism and abstraction, using bold, colorful, and flowing lines to bring my vision to life.
Through my art, I've come to realize its power to bind people together—connecting them through thoughts, emotions, and expressions. I'm passionate about retelling history, resurrecting special people and places that have been lost to time, overwritten, or simply forgotten. It's my way of keeping our history alive and sparking curiosity in the minds of those who encounter my work.
These conversations sparked by my art provide non-invasive avenues to explore various aspects of the subject matter, promoting social consciousness and awareness. I see art as a catalyst for awakening cognitive thought, channeling creative energy, and pushing the limits of universal understanding. It's not just about creating beautiful pieces; it's about fostering connections and meaningful dialogues through art.

About My Signature Orange Edges
My orange edges pay homage to the artist of the renaissance era and the romantic painter Joseph Mallord Turner (J.M.W) who said, every painting should have a touch of red to make it complete. I found the color Vermilion to be the perfect mix of orange that I love, and red that Mr. Turner felt was needed in a painting to call it finished. The orange edges are an identifying trait that signifies this is an original artwork, and the warm tone complements the body of the painting design. You can expect to find my signature orange edges on every original painting that I create.
