“I was taken with the exuberance and color of Topher's paintings. Collectors from across the nation came into the gallery to view and purchase Topher’s transcending paintings. He is easy to work with, enthusiastic with and I look forward to our future exhibitions.

Straus’ landscapes have a retro cubist quality, along with a dash of Yellow Submarine.
Michael Paglia, Art Critic
Straus’ work is alarming with color, solid and vibrant. Each work, they first jump out at the viewer separately and then together in a cooperative relationship with one another. His subjects focus on everyday images, though envisioned through an abstract scope. Each piece seems familiar and in most cases, jarringly emotional.
Matthew Marchesano, Critic & Journalist
Topher's work has beautiful movement and graphic brilliance. My client loves the piece that hangs on his wall.

“Topher’s work is stunning and on metal it makes the colors pop. I saw a post he created of the Pacific Ocean and wanted to do an original commision from it. Topher and I worked together, in his studio to create a painting. It turned out stunning and I enjoyed working with him."
Barbara Stanton, Collector
Straus’s large, digital landscape prints of mountain parks are applied to aluminum surfaces for an abstracted look that suggests the very canyon walls and mountain peaks the center was built to extol
Susan Froyd, Art Critic
Topher is an accomplished artist with grace & tenacity. He has accepted life on his terms with his intelligence, authenticity & boundless energy.
Nancy Koontz, Journalist
"I was enthralled with Topher's work and approached him about a commission. He created a beautiful piece of original work that is the centerpiece of my living room remodel. In addition to being a very talented artist, he listens and communicates effectively and works quickly but with all his heart. I absolutely love the piece."

"Bitfactory Gallery in Denver is opening back up with its postponed art exhibit Open Spacesnow running from July 17 through September 10th. In the era of COVID19 art galleries and cultural non-profits are struggling everywhere, it is vital that we support these entities in the safest way possible." by Ezra Lloyd
"The inspiration for Topher Straus’ art comes from decades of living in, and exploring Colorado and the Rocky Mountains, admiring tree-flooded valleys and silhouetted, mountain peak sunsets. His process includes modern technology and methods that result in a well-known landscape engulfed in contoured lines that superimpose the autogenous beauty of the original photograph. He takes recognizable, natural landscapes and converts them into a modern array of sharp lines — blending and contorting them up the slope of a mountain or shaping the soft, blurred lines of a waterfall. His zest for transcending established iconography makes for a unique combination of traditional vistas and modern style."
