Juror’s Top Choice: “The Art in Motion” Award for Lucid Fluid and Movement, Geoff Culbertson of Culbertson Art
Podcast interview coming soon…
Phoenix, Arizona (USA)
Geoff Culbertson of Culbertson Art creates from a place where emotion, memory, and landscape converge. His path has moved through different creative avenues, but painting has remained the constant that calls him back, offering both expression and reflection. That return has shaped his signature approach, an intuitive, abstract impressionist lens that transforms nature into atmosphere and feeling rather than literal depiction.
Stay tuned for our upcoming podcast interview with Geoff as he shares his journey with art and landscape.
Geoff’s Statement:
“Art has always been woven into my life, even as my path led me through different creative directions before returning to painting. Reconnecting with it has been both expressive and meditative—a way to explore emotion, memory, and place.
Influenced by abstract impressionism, I primarily focus on landscapes—not as literal depictions, but as emotional interpretations of atmosphere and experience. Through color, movement, and form, I aim to capture the essence of nature in a way that invites viewers to connect personally and immersively.
While landscapes are at the heart of my work, I also explore portraits and other subjects when inspiration strikes. Each piece is an opportunity to translate feeling into visual language, whether it’s the quiet strength of a face or the shifting light of a horizon.”
