Don Eddy

Don Eddy (born November 4, 1944; Long Beach, California) is an American painter who gained initial fame as a photorealist; but his recent works have veered into the realm of metaphysics.

In the 1970s, Eddy's works paid homage to cars and the urban cityscape. In the 1980s, his work was more object oriented—depicting glassware, silverware, and toys on a reflective series of glass shelves. Often composed of diptychs or polyptychs, he juxtaposes images in poetic relationship to one another—"echoing ecosystems," as the artist calls these connections of structure.
