About The Artwork

This is 'Number 6' - Sixth painting in a series of 10, one painting for each digit. Ten paintings examine human fixation on counting & our dependence on numbers in a functioning society. Notice the jail-like bars, they appear in all ten paintings. There is no escape. We are locked in to the use of numbers in our daily lives. This work has painted finished sides, and is wired & ready to hang.

Angles and lines, repeating patterns, and some circles - for relief. Angles and lines represent boundaries. I like boundaries, they make me feel safe, as do repeating patterns. They’re comforting because they’re familiar and expected. I’m an introvert and I find it stressful to cope with turmoil. So, I paint. I begin by drawing little sketched patterns on paper, dividing space. It frees me of distractions so I can focus my thoughts. I start to see things happen within the drawing and an idea for a painting begins to emerge. I transfer the drawing to the canvas. Alkyd (oil) is my medium of choice, but I also paint in acrylics. As I paint, I feel myself move into the painting. I work until I find what I’m looking for -- balance, harmony in smooth color fields, edgy transitions between the angles and lines, repeating patterns, and then some circles - for relief.
