Patina presents a collection of paintings by renaissance maker, Susan Wise. Wise also exhibits her works of contemporary art jewelry at Patina alongside her husband, Jeff Wise.
"...I am immersed in the limitless color palette of painting, enjoying its more intuitive, quicker pace of change. I build surfaces using applied layers of textured paper and thickening gels. The imagery is developed through gestural mark making and the creation of forms from light and dark. It is a free mind dance, without conscious thought or intent, suggesting both movement and emotion. The sequential nature of the process engenders a sense of history and relationships; it's a story, laid down on the canvas..." —Susan Wise
Deep indigo, navy, and cerulean strides across Wise's canvas, meeting at an elegant cross section over a sea of textured white. Hints of yellow come to the surface, providing a subtle contrast. Movement echoes the clear direction of soft brush strokes and measured variegated value. A sweet and bright hallmark to imagine in any space, lovingly made from the maker's studio.
Shown with: Boulder Opal & Lapis Necklace, Cool Mover II, Cool Mover III and Cool Mover IV.
