Follow The Light - Abstract Photography

Creator: Mitchell Funk
Offered by: Robert Funk Fine Art

Description
Mitchell Funk follows the light. Come along with him and become illuminated. Ephemeral rays of golden light strike an Upper East Side pre-war facade under renovation. The resulting image pulsates with warm golds and oranges. Funk has accomplished a bold yet delicately composed work that blurs the lines between abstraction and representation.
