Devin Reynolds
Contemporary Painting
(1991 – )
Devin Reynolds is a New Orleans based painter originally from Venice Beach, California, where he grew up working as a deckhand on The Betty O, a local sport-fishing boat. He received a BA in Architecture from Tulane University in 2017. Raised between flea markets, yard sales and the beach, his early childhood memories are filled with times setting up his mother’s booths at antique shows, surfing and fishing up and down the coast. Reynolds’ first encounters with art-making came in his early twenties in the form of graffiti. His obsession for graffiti took off when he began painting his assumed alias on the sides of freight cars that traverse the railroads of North America. Reynolds’ art practice finds itself at the intersection of graffiti and his love for nostalgic Americana design and sign painting, through the lens of his biracial upbringing in Los Angeles.
