I made it to the MAEP gallery at the MIA yesterday to see Margaret Wall-Romana's oil paintings (closes on Sunday, April 3rd). I walked into the room with an oh! and an ah! and I'm so glad I made the time to stop! I loved the scale, the range of abstract to realistic representation, the depth created by the so very many layers and the application of paint, from soft blending of color to thick impasto, the lack of detail and the amount of detail.... All to be found in one piece! I was transported to another world - one that I liked considerably - and one I that I hope to not forget.....
I'm in love.... (Apr 1, 2011)
