Wayne Pate Art

Wayne Pate “I’m obsessed with the shape of urns, the simplicity of their silhouette. I love looking at how they’ve changed over the centuries.” - Wayne Pate, Artist. Raised in Texas, Pate moved to New York in the early 1990s and dove into DJ’ing and graphic design — the latter helped to focus his deeply visual nature. Nowadays the artist’s focus centres on rendering objects and interiors in his signature simplistic yet sophisticated style. His studio, located in the light-filled Brooklyn brownstone that he shares with his wife, fashion designer Rebecca Taylor, and their three children is the ideal backdrop for his stunning artwork. Never formally trained in art, Pate taught himself the finer points of drawing, painting and printmaking. He also took the reins in decorating his home’s turn-of-the-century interiors. During his travels, Pate amasses Chinese ginger jars, clay urns from Florence and other interesting objects, which often turn up in his elegant line drawings and illustrations. Yes, Pate has an impeccable eye, but his art still leaves room for playfulness. He draws in looping, charming shapes and his lack of formal training means that he doesn’t take the rules of perspective too seriously. He even embeds little pieces of wit in his drawings — the leaves of a potted topiary, for example, are actually made up of digital scans of tiny boxwood leaves. #neonurchin #neonurchinblog #dedicatedtothethingswelove #suzyurchin #ollyurchin #art #music #photography #fashion #film #words #pictures #neon #urchin #waynepate #artist #graphicdesigner #cashmerecollection #softfurnishings #lampshades #wallpaper #fabric #studiofournyc #ceramics #rebeccataylor #linework (at Brooklyn, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1YXOBCAQ5a/?igshid=1ckfur8wlgczh
