#Layers of fear checkerboard series
I use gouache and collaged paper in a series of layers that are a visual and ideological response to the previous layer to define my pictorial space. I am interested in drawing and collaging multiple layers of information that refer abstractly to maps, architectural drawings and blueprints or patterns and structures found in such things as roller coasters, power lines and fences. My work is about the way visual diagrams present information that describes how something is made or the way it is. Each design is intensely intricate, incorporating gouache, acrylic, pen, graphite, ink and colored pencil. Variations on grids retain flaws and unmistakable traces of the artists’ hand her style of draftsmanship shies away from intellectualism and instead makes her compositions feel very personal. While precise lines and straight angles are often associated with themes in architecture and urban planning designs, English conveys a geometric motif guided by intuition rather than a ruler. The surface is protected with four coats of an archival UV protective varnish.ĭonise English emphasizes lines, grids, and fields of subtle color to evoke imagined places and invented structures. It's in excellent condition and ready to hang as is. The painting on paper is mounted to wood panel and complemented with a dark stained wood floater frame. Thousands of hand drawn lines serve as a backdrop for a bold geometric form in a teal blue, white, and black gridded pattern that references "an imagined city grid", says the artist. The composition begins with an earthy sage green background overlaid with intricate line work in graphite and colored pencil.
