To the Left: 6" x 6" ceramic tile painted with oil/media text for Artport 2012. To the Right: A postcard to Richard Moore given to me by Claudia who purchased it from his Estate Sale. The postcard had been on my fridge and wasn't on my mind when I tore the text from a news magazine and glued to the painting of the high heels, or was it?

Dennis O'Bryant is an artist, painter, sculptor and sometimes poet creating artworks in a century old Victorian bungalow in historic Marshall, Texas east of the downtown area which serves as residence, studio and gallery.
The paintings are rendered primarily in acrylic paint and often include the use of Sharpie permanent markers, paper collage and other mixed media. The subjects of these paintings range from the mysterious Caddo Lake, abstract compositions, the female form to pieces that tell a story, mostly about the artist's journey.
Sculpted works fabricated in metal are abstract pieces composed of geometric and twisted remnants of steel while works in clay tend to have more of a human element such as female torsos and stylized busts.
All things are raw material for creating, the sketchbook, photos, trips and personal relationships all blend together to create this art. Thank you for taking the time to see it.
