More Little Abstractions

5 more little paintings that will be in my show this September at Robertson Gallery.

Hope you can all make it to the reception during ArtWalk.

 Prophet 1  32 x 32  Oil on Canvas

 Prophet 2  30 x 32  Oil on Canvas

 Homage to a Square- A River Runs Through  30 x 32 Oil on Canvas


A friend said that in my paintings I took a square or near square and messed with it.  That's what's going on here I think.   If you remember Joseph Albers, he was a Bauhaus artist who came to the US and ended up as head of the Yale School of Design.  Did a series of paintings, Homage to a Square, that were seriously discussed when I was in art school.  They are nothing like this but I think the title is cool.  Have one coming up; Homage to a Square Cubed.

 Homage to a Square- Red Runs Through It  30 x 32  Oil on Canvas

Mutter und Kinder  40 x 44  Oil on Canvas

Some how these figures just keep getting in the way of my abstractions.  My German is probably all screwed up.
