Nathan Coppedge's Hyper-Cubism: Post-Cubist Drawings and Paintings

BOOK DESCRIPTION

Nathan Coppedge developed an oeuvre of astonishing variety, encompassing fourteen or more sub-styles, often inspired by M.C. Escher and the Abstract Expressionists. Working with a roller-ball pen and calligraphy ink, as well as acrylic and watercolor, he produced over a thousand works during a twelve-year period. Here, for the first time, his works are available in a large 8.5 X 11 volume, with glossy full color illustrations: fully 400 pages. It includes both paintings and drawings. Nathan's drawings have also been described as paintings. Viewers have said that Nathan’s work “locks together like a trap.” Yale Art Gallery has suggested that he get his artwork appraised. Here is an opportunity to see the work of a pre-eminent Hyper-Cubist, before it even appears in the major galleries.

Hyper-Cubic Drawings




A recent drawing, "Puzzle Bridge". Apologies for the poor image quality.

I have taken time away from art towards writing projects. My mother doesn't approve of the work titled "Untitled (Waxen Image)", claiming the colors are too bright. I think parts of it are spookily good, while other parts lack in coherence. I hope to work towards larger pieces, but this depends in part on establishing my identity apart from family.
