About

Hello and Welcome! Thank you for visiting my portfolio page 🙏

I'm Fox Hauck, a queer artist based in Seattle. My work in acrylic painting centers around abstract expressionism using vivid color representations of nature. My speculative focus; fueled by daydreams, small and sacred interactions with nature is driven by synesthesia. I explore creative interpretations of natrual phenoena through phosphorescent and fluorescent pigments, adding an element of perpetual change to my pieces when they are viewed under different lighting conditions. My art delves into the mystical realms of nature and occult psychology, inviting you the viewer to experience a fusion of the seen and unseen.

After personal experiences within my life began my inner journey of self discovery, I began to merge fluorescent and phosphorescent painting techniques with vibrant acrylic palettes to better illustrate my perspective. My creations, which I have named Dreamscapes, exhibit abstract visions of nature and emotions, encapsulating a spectrum of impressionist landscapes and intricate feelings through bold and vivid colors. My spiritual connection with nature and the landscapes of the Pacific Northwest serves as inspiration, guiding my approach to painting with a profound reverence for the ephemeral influence that weather and landscapes exert on human psyche. In my Dreamscapes, I harmonize color and texture to produce impressionist landscapes enriched with fantastical themes, often centering around themes in nature; motifs such as a radiant winter’s day, bold fluffy clouds, or the complicated microbiology of shadowy sewer. 

I incorporate fluorescent paints and phosphorescent pigments to enhance specific areas of the painting. When exposed to ultraviolet light, the completed artwork undergoes a visual transformative process, revealing new colors and underlying shapes. The interplay of ultraviolet light imparts a shift in some paint colors towards a darker, more emotional palette, while others fluoresce dynamically, altering the composition. The addition of phosphorescent pigments results in a fairytale glow-in-the-dark effect, especially pronounced at night and in dark rooms. This way, the paintings are constantly shifting their colors throughout the day and appear different under fluorescent or natural light while sending out their own light in darker viewing conditions.

Presently, I am pursuing a Bachelor's degree at the University of Washington where I plan to further my passions for psychology, neuroscience, comparitive religion, through the self-expression. During my free time, I engage in the solitary practice of Western Occult Philosophy, offering services such as Tarot readings, Astrology chart interpretations, and other various forms of divination; all in addition to accepting art commissions.
