Bryant Small is an Award Winning artist who lives in Jersey City, NJ and balances a social marketing and media career in New York City. Bryant has a love of culture, color and all things sparkling.  In his art, he loves to toe the line of free abstraction with vibrant color blending and pushing beyond pretty.  His Alcohol Ink pieces are free flowing, unpredictable and levitate from the page.

"Experimentation meets Imagination and Exploration" - each painting that I create begins with Color and from there, a true experiment derived of my imagination and exploring what alcohol ink does organically or can be manipulated to do happens. My medium, Alcohol Inks, are highly pigmented, fast drying dyes that are activated to move, bloom and blend when they interact with 91% rubbing alcohol - so every single piece is a unique experience because the medium overall doesn't truly allow for me to recreate a piece exactly in the same way. In my creating, I'm always experimenting and exploring the happy mistakes and colorful victories in my creative process.
