SAND PAIL SERIES

“Randy Ottenberg's paintings manage to make you want to laugh, dance, shake it up with the heavily handed ultra rich, verging on decadent use of gloriously alive, excitingly vibrant, exceedingly lurid color. You may need sunglasses for these paintings accost you, scorch the eyes with the shimmering intensity of their heat on a summer's day. You feel the sand between your toes, sand that shakes out of the towel when you pack it in for the day. The stickiness of the melting ice cream from the stand, the bodies draped across the landscape, the towels, kaleidoscope of colors reveling in the heated glare of high noon. These paintings come from the boom box, they scream and grab at you to join in the fun.”
