Three Pencils & Pen


12" x 9" — Oil/Canvas — 2009
• SOLD

This is the last piece I managed to finish for the upcoming December show. This is the sister painting to "Green, Red, Blue, Yellow". It is more grown-up and sophisticated, but there is still the connection between the different types of pencils.

I think these paintings are interesting because of the simplicity and the way the lines (pencils) converge and make an 'x' design. In actuality, the entire composition is made up of the most simple shapes — some rectangles and a few lines, yet they translate to recognizable objects.
