I'm excited to announce the opening of my show of figurative paintings--and a few landscapes, too--at Dowling Walsh Gallery in Rockland, ME. Please stop by if you can!
THE UNSEEN ASPECT
Opening: Friday, September 6, 5-8 p.m.
Show dates: September 6-September 30
Royalty, oil on linen, 42" x 54"
In my latest series of figurative paintings I explore themes
of personal/psychological interaction and motivation. Using family members and
close friends as models, or characters, I distill ideas down to their essence,
creating scenes out of my imagination that appear “real,” although they have
never actually happened as they are painted. Time is used fluidly. Situations
that developed over many years are painted as though they are happening in a
moment of time. People who lived in various time periods appear alongside each
other, and a single person can appear more than once, at different ages, within
a single painting.

Oh, this is so much more than a card game! What a wonderfully mysterious painting. And you are playing with such intensity.
I'm sure the show will be great.
Thanks, Shirley, and you are absolutely right, it's more than a card game. It's validating to hear from you that I've succeeded in hinting of other levels of meaning.
