Another painting in my hidden drapery series.
The image within the picture plane is hidden within the swirling
and movement of the lines created by the folding drapery.
If one looks at this as an
action painting or geometric abstraction the figure is revealed by the lines
that conjoin and wrap
around the figure. The image
also is reminiscing of Greco Roman sculpture where the figure is draped and
deeply carved
to reveal a body under cloth.
The attention is to combine techniques of modern expressivist paintings with
ancient 3 dimensional
carving and for the viewer to
find both within the painting.
