Cavalcade

This Cubist-inspired work integrates high intensity colors with a rhythmic composition. The energy of the painting is apparent in the impasto, much of which was applied with palette knife with rapid strokes. The composition is uplifting with its vertical construction and diagonal lines that contribute to the sense of vertical movement.

I hope the viewers see a kind of energy and musicality that leaves them intrigued and engaged. The puzzle-like composition will, hopefully, invite a closer, longer look as they make visual connections within the placement of the various forms.

Inspirations include Abstract Expressionism and Cubism. My goal in this piece is to engage the viewer with the painting's myriad of shapes, colors, and dynamic structure.
