BIO
Maxwell McMaster was born in Sacramento California and currently lives and works in Los Angeles. His work
typically takes inspiration from his native state. Maxwell uses color shape and texture to enhance and deepen
scenes from his travels and everyday life. The result is typically abstract and minimal in design but somehow complex
in appearance. The images invite the viewer to reflect on life, and its mysteries, its truth and its fallacies. Art that disarms
common perceptions and presents options for better tomorrows.
