Penumbral No.10 Painting

“Penumbral No.10” is part of my recent systematic art series “Penumbral" which involve the use of four circles linked by formal alignments and shadowed colour gradations. This painting was my first artwork in this series utilizing a painted print transfer technique. Qualities such as mottled directional brush strokes and a hard edged line graphic also make an appearance. This painting is acrylic and toner on clear gessoed 10 duck rough edged canvas. Its' signed on the back, and can be framed with or without glass, float mounted, or matted much the same as any artwork on paper. The artwork is stored and shipped in an archival crystal clear bag and is sold unframed. My images have a clean minimal aesthetic which depict hard edged geometric configurations imbued with vivid colours. The inherent objectless architectonic harmony of my pictures was devised as a solution to the burdens of modernity (being restlessness and relentless distraction.) These works aim to both puzzle and engage the eye of the viewer while minimizing distraction. My hope is that the observer becomes entranced leaving one’s heart agape so his/her attention can gracefully settle into experiencing the ineffable witness state.
