Jonathan Todryk is a contemporary abstract painter whose work is defined by quiet reduction and a deliberate, tactile approach to material. Working near Dallas, he creates minimalist, process-based paintings with raw pigment, water, and oil, often moving pigment with his hands to preserve the tactility of touch. His compositions evolve slowly through repeated gestures and subtle shifts of tone, resulting in meditative abstractions that feel grounded, spacious, and deeply attentive. Guided by an interest in stillness, breath, and the spiritual dimensions of presence, Todryk distills each painting to its essential marks, inviting viewers into a softened, introspective pace and a calm visual field that rewards slow looking.
