The painting Change Over Time consists of approximately a dozen layers of marks interspersed with a dozen layers of thinly tinted glaze, creating both physical and optical depth.  The glazing layers contain a mixture of charcoal and “interference” pigments, so that the painting appears to have both coarse texture as well as a very smooth, glossy overall finish.

This piece is on display this month (June 2010) at Artists’ Gallery and will be up through July 4, 2010.

This month at Artists’ Gallery I’m exhibiting six paintings, including these two “corner canvases”.  The canvas is beveled so that the painting hangs snugly in corners (they also can be hung flat against the wall).  This show is up through July 4, 2010, and the gallery’s hours are Fri-Sat-Sun from 11am-6pm (18 Bridge St, Lambertville, NJ).
