"Brad Eberhard is a painter’s painter, exploring the boundless potential of image making in the medium of abstraction. Working with great facility using oil and acrylic and paper, Eberhard’s new works on paper straddle the boundaries between painting, drawing and collage. The compositions begin in the spirit of organic evolution; as with his paintings, the artist incorporates found images, tearing and erasing in an organic fashion. In much the same way as a draftsman’s or biologist’s “cross section” exposes the invisible networks of a more complex system, Eberhard’s aim is to begin to expose not only something unseen by the viewer, but also to illustrate connections between the works. The collages are playful, serious, complex and simple, portraying beauty and conceptual depth with great confidence."
