Surfing the Crest of a Wave is the pinnacle of modern cool-
it is stylish on all fronts- from the innovative multi-panel design to the
transfiguring power of the colors and shapes present in paint on the canvas-
this painting is one that the viewer won't soon forget! This painting more
powerfully showcases a brilliant, captivatingly bright line of white. This line
snakes across the canvases, creating a wave like pattern that is surprisingly
graceful. Flanking this focal band of light are a series of shapes. These
shapes are almost like tiles in their arrangement and orientation on the
canvas. These tiles are repeated until they fade into the dark edges of the
painting. Instead of depicting these small, repeated shapes in a single color,
the artist has created depth and a more profound sense of dimension by using
several colors. Nearest to the central line and point of light the colors are
an intense shade of yellow, as they eye moves outward it is treated to a deep,
seductive shade of red. This red hue slowly is deepened until, at the edges of
the canvases, the design fades into black. The diverse quality of the colors in
this piece make it quite moving. It is hard not to find some element of Surfing
the Crest of a Wave that does not resonate right to your very core.
Not only is Surfing the Crest of a Wave bold and refreshing
in its color and expression- but the design of this piece is truly astounding!
The artist of this piece has chosen to separate the movement of the painting across no less than five
separate canvas panels! These panels vary in size and shape- three are
rectangular and two are squares. The canvases are arranged to accentuate the
curvature of the primary line. The synergy of all of these elements make for a
quite engaging piece of contemporary are that no viewer will soon forget! The
expansiveness and breathtaking scope of this piece make it a great fit for a
room with a large empty wall to fill. If you are quite taken with the new and
interesting perspective on line, distance and design that this painting
presents you with, you may find many more paintings you enjoy for these reasons
