Behind the Collection
Subtractive Layers
Inspired by original paintings.
When an artist uses absence as an instrument of creation, abundant possibility is revealed. Inspired by the process of removing material, Subtractive Layers explores minimalist ground. Striations of contrast were revealed by intentionally removing paint from canvas to create color shifts in individual tiles. This painterly quality adds to the visual of the two style, 12” x 24” collection, with layered colors that are reminiscent of painted canvas.
Authentic process.
“For the paintings that inspired Subtractive Layers, I chose to work with acrylic paints and used a palette knife and a comb for the process. A simple stroke of the comb created a beautiful, rich texture and removed the paint, letting the canvas shine through, while also creating peaks and valleys that added depth, shadows and highlights.”
