Edgar Medina Contemporary Abstract Art — Attraction in Houston

When I first moved to Montrose in 2011 I would drive by Edgar's Studio and see these incredibly vibrant and "alive" pieces of art displayed outside the front door. Finally, I visited the store and over the years have bought a number of items. As I continued to see Edgar's work grow and mature, I began telling people about 'this guy' over on Fairview and how incredibly talented he was.

Finally it came time for me to commission my first piece and I knew exactly who to visit - Edgar. Having never 'commissioned' a piece, I was a bit clueless, but Edgar walked me through the whole thing with the grace and passion that is just as much a hallmark of him as his art.

If you haven't had the opportunity to see Edgar's work in person, you must treat yourself to truly see how...

I have been following Edgar’s work for many years! I bought several pieces in 2010-2011 and have been buying since then. He is an amazing artist who continues to create pieces that are so diverse in meaning, color, and texture, so I can’t resist adding to my personal “art gallery.” Edgar also does commission pieces, which he has done for me on two occasions - they are absolutely perfect! If you haven’t seen his work, you must stop by his studio or go to one of his many events. Hopefully you get to meet him when you do because he is an amazing person who is a joy to talk to and gives back to the community in...
