> STATEMENT

Abe Murley is a young artist living and working in Los Angeles. Originally from Victoria British Columbia, Abe has been making art all his life. Encouraged by teachers at every stage, he completed a BFA at the Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design in Vancouver, and studied at the Art Students League in New York City. Abe considers his independent explorations to be at least as important as his academic training: attending museums and galleries throughout North America, traveling and meditating in India, studying his intimates and his environment. Hardly a naive artist, Abe’s work in paint, drawing and printmaking media refers to realist traditions but is not confined by them. Abe’s priority is to express the truth of his subjects, their integrity and essence, rather than perfecting any one technique. Fresh, unique, and thoughtful, Abe’s work embraces feeling, and the life of a living artist.
