Meet Artist Todd Williamson Articentric.com
"Equanimity is defined as mental calmness, composure, and evenness of temper. It is the perfect way to describe the feeling one might expect when viewing Todd Williamson’s work. Given the environment the artist works in, the hustle and bustle of the Los Angeles metropolitan area, his work evokes an overwhelming sense of inner calmness. The colors are intensely balanced, the lines all but reflect the pulse of the viewer…soft and long when relaxed and subdued, while short and energetic when pulsing with the rhythm of life. We thoroughly enjoy viewing Williamson’s work and his roster of exhibitions tells us we are certainly not alone in our admiration of his work. Williamson is the consummate working artist, seemingly never on pause, and always pushing his limits, both professionally and creatively. It is both reassuring and intensely motivating to listen to him discuss art and his process. We certainly encourage our readers to look for his exhibit nearest you, and witness Williamson’s work and vibrant energy for yourself. Without further adieu…ladies and gentlemen, meet West Hollywood-based artist Todd Williamson."

La Repubblica: "Todd Williamson Between Music & Painting" by Mario Nicola Franco
"Art1307 inaugurated the exhibition by Todd Williamson titled "Polyphony of a Landscape", edited by Cynthia Penna. The great utopia on the synthesis of the arts, painting that inhabits the space, and the music that develops over time, through the twentieth century from the collaboration between Arnold Schönberg and Wassily Kandinsky in 1911, up to the experiments of "Fluxsus" in 60's. Without speaking of the Futurists brothers Corradini, who composed "Symphony of colors" experiments with multicolored lights. The uniqueness and originality of the cooperation between the pictorial work of Williamson and musical compositions of Greg Walter, which has left the exhibition, it is to put on canvas the melody of sound, while the music translates agreements with the pictorial and musical phrases."

Kandinsky was able to modulate the rhythm of the planes and the elements present in space, caught by the perception of the human eye as well as an orchestra conductor directing the arrival on the scene and the development of sound contributions of each musician.

Dazeba News: Written by Rita Ricci Saturday, 12 December 2015 19:07Art becomes melody "Polyphony of a landscape"
"Poly-sensory experience awaits, of rare beauty and completeness. Williamson is a multifaceted artist, who manages to combine art with the melody and movement of the music, because of his deep knowledge of music, the subject of his studies at Belmont University in Tennessee, where he made an artistic collaboration with composer Greg Walter, which results in the original notes, his brush strokes depending on the intensity and strength of the stroke. The result is the interplay between vibrant canvases of pathos and other harbingers of harmony:

QD Napoli: Todd Williamson @ the Museo Pio Monte della Misericordia
"Williamson's works are permeated by a powerful dynamism, which is expressed through the choice of colors. With clever use of the technique oil on canvas, Williamson lights the scenes, which lead beyond the vanishing points of the canvas. This, according to many, is perfectly suited to dialogue with the paintings of the '600 (the number of artworks in the Pio Monte's permanent collection) and, therefore, with the artistic choices of Caravaggio. For this reason, Williamson's "Mercy" will be placed before the work of the immortal pioneer of Lombardy, in order to encourage the visitor to a dialog between the two paintings, Caravaggio's and Williamson's."

"Caravaggio and #ToddWilliamson , past and present, face to face in the museo Pio Monte della Misericordia in Naples.
Williamson's work was inspired by the "Seven Acts of Mercy" by Caravaggio and will part of the permanent collection of the Pio Monte dedicated to new artistic trends.
As the editors like to point out, Todd Williamson works with "classic" materials - oil on canvas - creating abstract works full of #light and #movement that could well dialogue with the works of the '600 Neapolitan artists in the Pio Monte's collection, and in particular with the work of all Caravaggio which Williamson is a great scholar and lover."

"Mercy" by California painter Todd Williamson @ Pio Monte della Misericordia Diario Partenopeo Nov 2015
Museo Pio Monte della Misericordia in collaboration with ART1307 presents, "Mercy" by California painter #Todd Williamson . The painting was inspired by Caravaggio's "Seven Works of Mercy" and will become part of the permanent contemporary art collection of the Pio Monte. Williamson creates abstract works full of light and movement that interact seamlessly with the works of the '600 Neapolitan artists and in particular with the Caravaggio, of which Williamson is a great scholar and lover. "Mercy" will be displayed at the Pio Monte, opposite to the work of the master Caravaggio."

La Repubblica Newspaper "Todd Williamson Between Music and Painting" by Marco Franco Nov 28, 2015
"The great idea in the synthesis of the arts, painting that inhabits the space, and the music that develops over time, came first in the twentieth century from the collaboration between Arnold Schönberg and Wassily Kandinsky in 1911 up to the experiments of "Fluxsus" in 60's. The uniqueness and originality of the cooperation between the pictorial works of Williamson and musical compositions of Greg Walter, all part of the exhibition, is to put on canvas the sounds of the melody , while the music translates the colors, lines, and tonalities in the art."

The Pickwick: "Polyphony of a Landscape" How Close can Painting and Music Touch? by Roberta Andolfo Nov 2015
"The group of experiments of the interaction between visual art and music, can be considered commendable, have reflected on the subject by examining different points of view, exploring from time to time the reactions of two different "sense" stimuli so different and yet in some ways similar. In this "way" they are woven together and repeated from one medium to another.
Miro was imprinted by his friends music and some of his sketches became the elusive touch segmented sounds that followed, while Kandinsky was able to modulate the rhythm to capture the plans and the elements present in space, caught only by the perception of the human eye, as well as any orchestra conductor directing the development of the sound contributions of each musician.
In our day, the example of two American academics, the American painter Todd Williamson and composer and longtime friend, Greg Walter, is that of a partnership designed on the cutting of ' interference ."

The concept of music is both complex and simple: if one side is completely indescribable, the other can be made with a thought, a word, and sometimes with a trace of color on a canvas. If the Lebanese poet Khalil Gibran wrote that music teaches us to see and hear with the ear with the heart, the American artist Todd Williamson decided to express what he sees and what he feels through his medium, painting. Williamson and Walter have therefore initiated a common path, in search of the visible spectrum of the sound waves of music and painting . From their collaboration and their work triggered a series of large paintings and a symphony, which took the name of Polyphony of a Landscape

“This year, local artists, complemented by a handful of more internationally known ones, designed the guitars on display. A good contrast is provided by artist Todd Williamson’s acrylic on fibreglass British Invasion guitar, which the artist created as a celebration of the influence British musicians and bands have had on “rock and roll and the Sunset Strip”.
