About

Frank Hockaday

I believe everything works in patterns. As a painter I work with patterns of light, texture, color, shapes, and motion. I believe all things are interconnected from the smallest particle to the fabric of the universe and in constant motion. Line work is a strong element in my painting and a dynamic tool for expressing motion and feeling. Line work lends itself to strong design.
