The Shifts and Spurts of Eternal Ferocity

By  Mark Elliott Smith 2013 - 2014

Andrew Harrison

Mark’s work explores the formal relationships of colour and shape and their potential for emotional affect, this work examines the capacity of art to animate a space in a positive way. The meticulously painted image reveals a sense of dynamic unity and balance with the illusion of three dimensions, within an underlying circular composition. Acrylic painting on cotton duck ultra-smooth canvas. The canvas is primed and sanded down to a smooth surface. Paint is then laid on flat in layers with a brush to a fine, crisp finish.
