Havoc Hendricks
Havoc Hendricks is a self-taught, professional artist who passionately pursues the perfection of his craft. Studying the never-ending line patterns that nature displays through water, mountain strata, geodes, rock veins, cloud patterns, wood grain, etc. is a constant inspiration. Hendricks transcribes these patterns through a minimalist perspective; the end result is something he calls “detailed minimalism," using un-traditional tools and by combining different paints and elements in unique ways.
Artist Statement:
My work is intentionally meant to not scream for attention. Rather, It confidently exists to be noticed when the viewer is ready to be drawn in by the intricate patterns displayed throughout.
Growing up in rural Idaho, I spent most of my childhood observing the tiny details of my quiet environment. I have many memories of obsessing over my grandfather’s 100+ geode collection, watching the water run through the nearby creek and being just as interested in the wood grain on our living room furniture as I was in the action figures that I was making climb all over them. Later in life I became a mountaineer. These climbing adventures took me to even more fascinating and remote locations where I could study the earth’s diverse strata. This hobby of observing nature’s patterns was nurtured for decades before finding its destined outlet through the end of a paintbrush.
While missing out on the artistic knowledge that comes with an academic art education, I’ve also had a mind unfettered by rules and suggestions which has allowed me to discover new techniques and styles previously unexplored. My techniques have evolved by using un-traditional tools and by combining different paints and elements in unique ways.
