About The Artwork
One of my website galleries is named “Save the Trees.” I like not only to recycle materials, but to paint on whatever I find. I’m known to look at trash day deposits, and have picked up some of those cast offs, as well as yard stones. “Long Stretch” is one. It is done on masonite peg board and fits a certain space; the holes in the board lend a certain extra dimension. You might say it has elements of Rothko and Pollock for inspiration. While teaching at University of Cincinnati, I lived across the Ohio River in Kentucky, outside the town of Augusta. We would ride our horses along the river in a road of sorts, called “Long Stretch.” The piece is done with household paint and brush, with joint compound filling some of the holes. Walking into the room where it now hangs, it pretty much demands your attention. Hold for hanging pretty much come with territory and are camouflaged by the color.

United States
I am a retired opera/ concert singer, jack of all trades and teacher, now painter and writer who would like to sell some if his artworks and get the story of his life published as a book, or the chapters as articles: book is "Asparagus in My Tuba: The Strains of an Absentee Gardener". Married to great pianist and teacher, Arlene Shrut. I have more extended artist statements and what I call a lyric bio on my website: gkendall@artspan.com in one of the four galleries. Here at Saatchi Art I am adding works almost every day. Thank you, my wonderful followers. GK
