Cedric Michael Cox is best known for his paintings and drawings that merge surrealism and representational abstraction. Cox received his formal training as an artist at the University of Cincinnati’s College of Design, Architecture, Art, and Planning (BFA, Painting 1999) and the Glasgow School of Art in Scotland. Soon after, he began exhibiting his work both regionally and nationally. Cox’s paintings catapult color into rhythmic action with abstract and recognizable images creating compositions inspired by themes in music and the natural world.  Working under several influences, including architecture and art history, Cox’s work ranges from cubist-inspired geometric compositions to cityscapes, landscapes, and curvilinear floral-like forms, all dancing within surrealistic environments. His artwork has been exhibited in galleries and museums, featured in books and magazines, and acquired by corporate collections. Additionally, Cox has executed several large indoor and outdoor murals in various public and private schools, libraries, businesses, and community centers throughout the Cincinnati Region.
