In the month of September, DAAS Co-Op Art Gallery & Gifts features the work of visual and tattoo artist Mully. The artist, originally from Braintree, Mass., moved to Florida in 2003 to pursue his artistic career.
The opening reception is scheduled for Friday, Sept. 6 from 6 to 10 p.m. in conjunction with the monthly Fort Myers Art Walk. The exhibition will be on display through Sept. 28.
Mully has been producing fine art painting since 2007. He has a refined, yet loose approach to all his art, creating his own recognizable style full of many drips, a bit of chaos, or what he considers “happy little accidents” – quoting the iconic painter Bob Ross. The artist enjoys using acrylic paint, combined with a plethora of mixed media materials to give each piece different contrast and textures, giving each piece its own uniqueness.
Before exploring his artistic talents, Mully studied business management and worked in the financial field as an accountant. He immediately recognized that the corporate world was not for him and sought the opportunity to become a tattoo artist. This lead to a career, which allowed him to produce fine art and experiment with multiple mediums. “First, came wood burning and then painting with acrylics and oils.” – says the artist, who finds the use of various mediums as the outlet for his creativity. “I think it is important to stay in a creative mindset and be inspired by bringing what I learn from each medium to my paintings,” adds Mully, whose artwork style ranges from tattoo inspired, to classical portraiture and figurative work.
