Gray in Six Degrees

I am traveling today, so I apologize for the brevity here. I was sent this lovely wallpiece by Fran Abrams after she saw what the theme was this week.  The piece is called “Six Degrees of Separation”.  It’s wall art that is 18″ x 18″ and created using only black clay and white clay mixed in varying proportions.

I simply like that Fran went for a pure study of value here. It created an unusual challenge for the artist and a canvas. The form and contrast are all there working to draw you in.  Although it is simple, it keeps drawing the eye back to take one more look or compare a couple more grays between squares. Just imagine being the one creating it. Or maybe, create a study of grays for yourself.

Visit with Fran and her other ‘studies’ on her website.
