Bird On A Wire
Black Linen Collages, 2024.
These collages are created from transparent-primed linen, as well as linen painted in a variety of colors. The unifying element is that, in each work, I have used shapes cut from linen that I painted black. There are no found images, such as clippings or photos.
These works are small and almost square. They are primarily organic shapes but often play against others that are geometric. Some are very still and a bit architectural. Others are more dynamic and can refer to movements found in landscapes.
There is a challenge in creating a variety of unique images using very few colors and the same small space. I have enjoyed making them and hope there is pleasure in viewing them as well.
