Preferring anonymity, BEAMT!ME is an American artist who lives and works in Florida, USA. It’s an open concept, not so serious and all are welcome. Art that is faceless, disconnected from the system, to be encountered, offers a gateway to a slumbering place.
Playful organic characters and forms emerge in lands. The viewer is invited to add their own story. Finished artwork can blend traditional painting, drawing, and digital techniques.
In 2020, BEAMT!ME began to go beyond painting and drawing to share work with more people, adding text comment or video for theater and whimsical humor.
About BEAMT!ME
Somewhere out beyond the always, from a Greeting of Wildness
“Jeepster”* like characters show up from time-to-time
JEEP aka “Just Empties Every Pocket” (1)
With a travelled air, a Look and a Line, before there was Carnaby Street
Whimsical disruptor, on a “chair that isn’t there” (2)
Yeets in unpredictable leaps… All-at-Once in a lifetime
Undercover, a Sustained Deviance, carrying the Universe inside
Thinks it’s been kissed by a Moose
Time’s out-of-the-bag when we hang… baked-in uncertainty abounding
Wears pinstripe and different colored cowboy boots
Alleged street nap, reaching for the fishbowl
Picks-up fallen Sunshine, catches Snowflakes with the Tongue
Reverberating Groove, Tuned-in, Tooning-out then turns a “Whiter Shade of Pale” ** and vanishes without a trace
Detachable and reversible from entanglements, round-the-corner of Future to Past
Beamtime (noun): Time allocated to research for use of a Beam of Particles from a particular source (re: Wiktionary)
* from “Jeepster”, songwriter Mark Bolan
** from “Whiter Shade of Pale”, songwriters Gary Brooker / Keith Reid / Matthew Fisher (1967)
