Curator’s Comment:  

 

Where Dreams Come True is a small gem of a piece.  The large expressive gesture visually pulsates between throbbing expansion and self containment. The radially grouped gestural brushstrokes suggest an organic leaf or flower, but could also be viewed as abbreviated or animated lines of pure energy.  I also find the warm color exceptionally lush, without succumbing to garishness.  The higher chroma pinks and orange hues wonderfully balance the less saturated cool center tones. I find it interesting the square format crops the composition in a manner that interrupts what would be a natural vertical flow of space.  This creates some visual tension within the piece.  The companion painting entitled Probing also enjoys a color system of saturated warm tones against a balancing low chroma green edge.  Decidedly more agitated in disbursement of shape, the figure-ground relationship is blurred by amorphous edges and shifting value contrast. I like the vertical expansion of the left side, as it anchors the more erratic radial bursts in the deep orange ground. These paintings seem to be highly intuitive and enigmatic.
