100 by 120 cm. (about 3 by 4 feet).
Lately, I have been using bolts to attach paintings to wood frames, and/or a thicker impasto paint: I seem to be coming back to my roots in ceramic sculpture as my paintings get more three dimensional.
This is a very personal painting, and a bit on the dark side. On the one hand, it is a Dutch winter: green moss and dark skies: death. Yet when viewed in a brighter light the moss green becomes a deep and more verdant green, with promise of growth and summer. The black center becomes a deep blue, almost more of a northern-lattitude midnight summer sky: rebirth. I like this painting because of the ambiguity: it is my new favorite.
