10"x24"x2" Oil and collage on board
Mixed Media #24"x36"
In this series of paintings, I use collages of ellipses under a “skin” of oil paint to explore representations of physical, metaphorical, and emotional forces. The ellipse is a departure from the precision of the circle while maintaining the visual idea of continuity and endlessness. It is a form that is both empty and full and speaks to the many cycles seen in nature; the mysterious quality of the overlapping sculptural shapes just below the painted surface suggests a hidden other.
!
The collaged ellipses lend their form to physical processes such as waves rhythmically hitting a beach, or ripples emanating in concentric bands from a stone thrown into a pond of water. The ellipse can be viewed as the shape sound makes, its reverberation, or the energy radiating outward through the earth’s crust at the epicenter of an earthquake.
