Mike Shankman’s paintings are relics of an aftermath, the debris left behind after powerful and destructive forces have toppled what once stood. Â His images are both desolate and visceral, and I like them very much. Enjoy!

These are some of my favorite paintings you’ve posted. The sense of color and dimension make them exciting. But I think I’m most impressed with Shankman’s design sensibility. These paintings get me excited to paint!
If you like this its an intriguing mix of David Schnell and Tadashi Kawamata, both in their own way, interested in flying lumber.
Really like the colors, sense of dimension, the way how the drawing is contacted from straight lines and angles.
This is vivid and interesting …. good use of space
