Each piece from this collection is carefully selected from the limestone rocks in central Texas. Once chosen, each piece is prepared and painted with the purpose of shedding light on the natural beauty of the individual rock. Although they are painted by man, the real beauty lies in the natural and unique characteristics of broken pieces of limestone. AJ strives to keep the rocks natural integrity intact while adding color in order to bring attention to the special features of the rocks.
This piece is created with a limestone rock found in Central Texas along with spray and hand paints. The stand is made of wood and covered with blue, red and yellow felt.
Caution should be had when handling and displaying any piece from the RockofAJs Collection. The stands are meant for the rocks to lean on using the rocks center point of gravity to assist in the weight transfer from the rock to the stand, and they are only as secure as the place at which they are displayed. Keep free of movement and excessive vibrations. Limestone is a very soft rock therefore impacts of any kind could damage the art.

AJ Rojas is a contemporary American artist. Motivated by the gestural approach of Abstract Expressionism, AJ draws influence from the Surrealist and Dada movements of the early 20th century in an effort to replicate the unconscious mind's immediate expression. Always drawing inspiration from organic forms and natural life, in line with Biomorphism's intuitive approach. Based on the aforementioned, AJ identifies as an abstractionist painter whose work lies in the liminal space between abstraction and surrealism, where the viewer's mind can conjure up a variety of interpretations.
Occasionally experimenting with geometric abstraction, AJ usually starts by randomly placing straight or irregular lines on the canvas. Following the initial line insertion, he examines the random lines from his own distinct vantage point to uncover the secret pictures he conjured from his mind. Once the eye-catching lineaments are apparent, he carefully shapes them into color before adding them to the canvas.
The artist claims that leaving a door open for the viewer to shape their own experience with his art is a crucial aspect of his work. He has always believed that the viewpoint of the observer in regards to his paintings is just as important as his own.
