"Rise II"
Oil on canvas.
Small piece with a punchy feel. Strong purples and reds are obscured with a fleshy veil. Lines of a contemporary neutral grey sit comfortably, contrasting sharply in tone with a gestural ultramarine which itself compares with the closely related Phthalo blue lined above.
Compositioin lifts to the right, hence the title - but this is all about the colour. Small in dimension, big in power.
