"Whorl" - Contemporary Abstract Painting Painting

Part of the current series of paintings using tar and housepaint in addition to more conventional artists' media such as oil and acrylic. Free shipping on this piece: Artist's Statement: "I have been making these painting beginning with a basic form using tar, a materials I worked with way back that I have begun using again because of its extraordinary beauty and physical principles. Then I go in with oil and acrylic, and generally use the house paint to flatten the surface and add to the negative space, reducing the more solid forms that push forward. This is one of the few thus far that I have done on paper, and I really like the way it turned out. It seems to be in motion, as if the gestures used to make it continue to spin." I would recommend framing this piece behind non-glare glass, with a mat of ivory color.
