Eight "Pattern" Paintings
"Babel Valley" 2019 oil paint on linen 60 x 58.5 ins 152.5 x 148.5 cm
"Babel Tower" 2019 oil paint on linen 60 x 48 ins 152.5 x 122 cm
These paintings each use the regularities of pattern in one way or another. Sometimes as a surface which is disrupted or fragmented by bursts of abstracted vegetation, flowing lines and gestural paintwork. Other times as acumulations of many fragments of differing patterns creating compicated, chaotic surfaces.
Some of the "Erupture"paintings are included in this grouping.
