Greg Cookland blogs about the exhibition Andrew Masullo: Recent Paintings on view at Steven Zevitas Gallery, Boston through December 3, 2011.

Cookland notes that "Usually this sort of hard-edged abstraction is painted smooth and flat, but Masullo… brushes on the oil paint at a fluid, opaque consistency, something like house paint, with it building up into lumps and encrustations here and there that suggest him working out the compositions as he goes along, and makes them feel more homespun."
