These began as ink and watercolor journal entries while spending a very healing time in St. John, USVI and Long Island, Bahamas. I could not stop making them when I got home and they’ve developed to become more textured and layered. Included to the process now are gold/copper leaf, rice paper, resin on a 5x7/4x6 hardboard. Some are made individually, others in small groups and the larger pieces are mounted to an unstretched canvas. After two years of delving deep in political expression with my work, I welcomed the playfulness of these patinated pieces. "Four More" is a 20x22 inch artwork crafted with ink watercolor, copper and gold leaf, rice paper, and resin on chipboard. The piece features an abstract composition divided into vertical rectangular panels placed side by side. Each panel showcases textured surfaces with color variations in shades of blue, green, white, and hints of yellow. In every panel, a distinct circular shape is positioned at the top and bottom, connected by a vertical line or stem, evoking simplified floral or mechanical elements. The weathered or aged aesthetic is achieved through a mixed media approach, using paint and additional materials to create a textured effect.

A self-taught artist from Paterson, NJ, Alfonse Pagano was an assistant to Len Lye in the 1970s before attending The School of Visual Arts and the New School in NYC. His work has been shown at numerous galleries and The Laguna Gloria Art Museum in Austin, Texas, and is held in various collections at The Carnegie Mellon Museum in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. In 1990 Alfonse Pagano took up photography and co-authored a photojournalism book entitled DREADS. With an introduction from Alice Walker, the book published in 1999 by Artisan/Workman Press is in its eighth printing. A move from NYC to Newark, NJ in 2011 inadvertently led to the development of a new technique forging both disciplines of painting and photography. At the height of COVID, Alfonse and his partner Rowena bought a 40-foot trawler and are presently cruising in the tropics trying like hell to figure out how to make art on a boat.
