Eo Omwake (born June 14th 1946) is an American artist known for his Abstract and Non-Representational paintings. He is famous for using glitter and became known as the ‘glitter king’. He also used ‘flocking’. In his early work he covered whole paintings with clear glitter allowing the image underneath the glitter to show through. He is also known as one of the first artists to work with all over ‘pattern’ as a main theme. Over time Omwake worked in just about every style from pattern to an abstract/realistic blend to primitive realism. His paintings are notable for their rage of sensitivity to powerfulness. Physical texture seemed to always be important for Omwake and lent his paintings a very tactile and sensuous quality.
