Beginning the new year- 2009

"Inferno"
Acrylic Collage
2009
48" x 48"



This painting is a series of paintings that are inspired by the forces of nature. The contrast between the free-form application of thick acrylic paint against the geometric paint tiles. The uniqueness of each tile conforms to alignment yet links surrounding tiles with color, texture and pattern of adjacent tiles. A subtle compositional division of space is created by a horizontal band of contrasting colors, in this case, the small units of blue, purple, yellow and browns.
