Snakes/Doves (Collaboration with Don Wade) Painting

This work was created in collaboration with my friend and fellow artist Don Wade during 2018. In our many conversations over the years we have engaged in spirited debates, sometimes ending in agreement but often at odds. It was in this frame of mind that we conceived the idea of a work which would be two paintings interlaced together. Combining Don's expressive nonrepresentation and my graphic approach informed by my design background, we sought to create something neither of us could do by ourselves. By juxtaposing contrasting color and texture, and the inclusion of gold enamel with metallic and interference acrylics, the two layers within the composition compete with each other for foreground and background, creating movement within the viewer’s shifting perception. Not a union of opposites but a steady interplay and balance, at times chaotic and harmonious.
