painting is an experiment
Living on the scenic coast of North Carolina, my creative journey is deeply rooted in both the industrial and the elemental. Chris Bartosik transforms WD-40, carburetor cleaner, and volatile industrial materials into museum-caliber abstract works — each one impossible to replicate.
Each work is created through layered chemical reactions that can permanently damage the canvas if miscalculated. The process requires timing, control, and acceptance of irreversible decisions.
Original Abstract Art for Elevated Interiors & Luxury Spaces
Textured, Layered, and Impossible to Mass Produce
Every piece is original.
Using experimental layering techniques, industrial materials, chemical reactions, movement, and texture, each painting develops organically during creation — producing depth and energy that cannot be replicated through prints or factory-produced décor.
The result is artwork that feels:
- collected, not decorated
- emotionally engaging
- sophisticated yet approachable
- modern without feeling cold

artwork that changes the feeling of a room
The right artwork does more than fill empty wall space.
- It creates emotion.
- It shapes energy.

Every painting is created with the goal of becoming the defining visual element within a beautifully designed interior.
