The Solar Anvil paintings use a simple lozenge form, improvisationally broken into triangles, as a prismatic template for color and textural variation. They evoke light and dimensionality through changes in color gradation, shifting edge quality, and transparency, while also remaining definitively flat, imperfect, and conscious of the materiality of canvas upon which they are made, nodding to both textile design and geometric abstraction.
