"Direct Link" ($60.00)




















(adjusted price.....$60.00.....mounted on a 1.50" clayboard)

No explanation is really needed here. We've all clicked onto those underlined and high lighted links on our computer that immediately connect us to a particular site. The comparison of prayer to a direct link is perfect.

Erratic lines came to the forefront, big time, in this background. The criss crossing of lines in the paste paper yielded several crosses so I capitalized on what was there and painted in the belfry tower. I did like the "echoes" of crosses throughout the piece in all different sizes and configurations. There was no black in the first layer, but after painting the belfry tower, I noticed a perfect spot on the right hand side to "echo" the shadow in the bell tower.

Echoes of different elements whether it be color, texture, lines, or shapes will add a dynamic rhythm to any piece. Whether they happen spontaneously or intentionally, they are worth careful attention.
