Circle Line
Acrylic on canvas over shaped board
Dimensions: 36”x 57”
Private collection
Circle Line is one of my cut out pieces, painted on canvas stretched over a shaped board. .
This simple composition of quarter arcs at one corner, merging with a square at the other, repeats itself as it morphs from a cerulean blue to a cool. almost lemon yellow. The effect is serene and hypnotic. As the viewer holds their gaze the eye is deceived as the layers start to blend into one another.
The colors reminded me of the District and Circle underground line in London. This was the the “tube” that I took every day as I commuted into London for work . Around and around, everyday the same, it became hypnotic also.
………….
My unique originals are painted with bold acrylic colors and simple geometric forms, either on canvas or on custom made shaped boards. They are a celebration of life through color and composition in its most elemental form and an expression of the transformative power of art.
