Albert Gonzales is a post-contemporary artist based in San Antonio, TX. He is heavily influenced by post- WWII artists like Jackson Pollock, Keith Haring and Jean-Michel Basquiat, but also draws inspiration from the masters like Henri Matisse and Van Gogh. With this broad range of inspirations, Gonzales’s fine art approaches are visual experiments within composition, style, and technique.
From abstraction to still life to portraits, his art can span multiple genres. With bold color palettes, his often “outrageous” paintings are fun and unpredictable. As a great commentator on his own art style, his showmanship brings forth the passion for his art and his need to create. His audience is able to see and feel his dearest dedication to craft.

San Antonio artist Charlie Morris’s artistic practice involves politically nuanced, multi-media projects, which explore how technology, mass media, and territorial ownership inform our perceived understanding of our shared surroundings.
Most often, his encounters with objects and images are found serendipitously on walks, close to the street or trail, disregarding easier forms of transport. These materials often elicit metaphors, alluding to such concepts as power relations, territorial ownership, rampant consumerism, social angst, and environmental loss.
For the past few years, Morris has been creating handmade, small edition photo books of his work in order to share these encounters with a broader audience.
