Emergence

The mostly subtle, neutral palette of Emergence is activated by many techniques such as drips, splatters and sgraffito (scratching through wet paint). The few pops of orange also add interest. The piece has a calming presence, but there is much to engage your mind by delving deeper into the layers. It is reminiscent of when the sun starts to peek through on a rainy day. The painting is on gallery wrapped canvas with the sides painted grey. This painting sold at the InLiquid Benefit Silent Auction in Philadelphia.
