Tennessee Loveless is a Los Angeles based Pop/Op artist, whose work drips with irony, considering the fact that he is severely colorblind. Tennessee understands hues from a pigment and formulaic concept, his color choices are based on the fundamentals of color theory and word association of the color, rather than the actual color itself. His palette selections are mathematical and planned out through precise geometric composition; so that he can communicate beauty to the one thing he is blind to. 

His synesthesia allows him to communicate hue choices objectively and as a result his work is largely dedicated to the story-telling element of color, expression, and pattern.  The emotional pull of this process produces a crossing of the senses.  He believes in painting people and fictional characters in a way that strike an emotional and nostalgic connection in the viewer.

The Chuck Jones Gallery is pleased to present his first edition celebrating the Chuck Jones Centennial, "The Big Kaboom."
