Ellovare is a large colourful abstract artwork in my Reform series. Typical of this style, I have used bold linear shapes and a careful balance of colour and structure. The end result is a striking, yet calming original artwork.
The Reform series is based around, or draws inspiration from architectural design from various locations around my home in Sydney, Australia. I sketch out these works in various dimensions where some sections of the painting may be topographical, while other section may be enhanced minor details. The subject matter is not necessary to appreciate the artworks, which are large colour field abstract structural designs. I attempt to evoke a level of contradiction in the reform series where the artwork may initially appear neat and orderly, yet due to the painterly technique, and the way that the paint is applied, they are not necessarily as neat as one may assume on first glance. The artworks in the series may appear as simple blocks of colour, yet upon closer examination, the viewer will see underpainting marks, finer lines, and redactions, which adds ale level of detail and complexity.
I intend to present a level of industrial design and feel. Many of these subjects in the reform series are older buildings such as industrial buildings, garages, and workshops. There is something authentic and real about these older buildings, and that level of evolution and devolution is relayed in my works. I draw inspiration artistically from renowned artists such as Diebenkorn, Rothko, and Mondrian.
The painting has been continued over onto the sides which adds another dimension to the artwork, and also means it does not need to be framed. I have signed the painting and finished it off with several layers of matte varnish coat to highlight the colours, and to protect the painting. Ellovare has been painted on artist grade 120cm x 90xm stretchers on 12 oz poly/cotton canvas. The above photos present Ellovare in a home setting, though it would work equally well in an office environment.
