About this Artwork
Thus far, apart from two projects that produced paintings in series, the artist’s paintings are not serial, functioning in relation to each other less like siblings and more like only children with lots of cousins.
This acrylic painting on polyester exemplifies that only-child status, combining random source material from Cantrick’s previous paintings.
The extremely smooth surface of the polyester support permits particularly precise rendering and unique textural effects.
About the Artist
Susan Cantrick is an American abstract painter whose primary interest is in painting as a structured visual response to sub-linguistic thinking. Her paintings are analogs of her pre-verbal perception that aim to be as articulate as possible, crystallizing the vitality and complexity of emergent cognition.
