This work is part of an ongoing exploration of rhythm as a central compositional principle.
Vertical sequences of cadmium red, cobalt blue, cobalt green, and black form a structure that is both dynamic and balanced.
While the colored passages are developed through thin, layered applications to achieve transparency and depth, the black is applied in a dense, impasto manner, creating a distinct contrast of surface and tactility.
The result is a measured interplay of color, rhythm, and material tension. more information
