Abstract Paintings UBCO BFA Grad Art Show

The Right Path is a Journey 4'x6'

Depth 40"x40"

The show opened on Tuesday and I sold these two paintings on the first day....It was so exciting. The larger painting is a multi-layered abstract with a felt ball attached to it. The second painting is also an abstract with multiple layers of colour and texture. I called it Depth to compliment its counter part which was Surface.I was thrilled to pass them on to someone who will enjoy them and hang them in their home.

Process Painting and 4th Year

Mark Rothko

In 4th year painting, one of our assignments is to do 3 paintings 40"x40". We are to research 3 artists, one of whose art we have seen live in person, and combine these 3 styles into our own painting. I chose Mark Rothko, Marc Chagall and Michael Adamson, a Canadian born Toronto Artist whose work I saw a SOPA Art Gallery here in Kelowna. We also have to do 'drawings' and I have decided to do my on 9"x9"pieces of raw canvas, old paintings cut up, water colour paper, old water colour paintings....so much stuff hanging around the house that I don't like so I might as well recycle it. So today is the beginning of the process and I began with Rothko. I may never get to Chagall's images...but maybe his colours or his feel or probably his fiddler which to me will always be symbolic of the jewish faith in which I was raised. They create a similar feeling as do the Basler Waggis that for me are a symbol of  the Basler tradition
