“This American artist enchants our eyes and senses with his textured paintings where colours explode almost magically.”
~ Art & Design Magazine, Paris, Feb/Mar/Apr 2020

Welcome to SchafferArt.  My work strives to recognize the complexities of humankind as well as to explore the pleasures or our inner child.  To do this, I employ an organic use of paint, ink, metal, earth, tile, and other materials in an expressionistic style.  That style takes three forms: Interpretive, Figurative, and Abstract.  And while the forms may be different, each piece is infused with texture, color, shape, movement and, I hope, soul.  I invite you to enjoy the variety of my work.  Thanks for visiting.
