VALERIE JAUDON,Toomsuba


1973, acrylic paint on canvas by Valerie Jaudon.
You can find this contemporary painting in Hudson River museum in Yonkers, NY. It is a part of pattern and decorative movement exhibition.
The pattern creates an image of woven basketry as the artist explains. Her later works are influenced by Islamic screens and tiles.
Looking at this painting I see the pattern creating circles starting in the middle and by moving outward increasing in size.

  3. My eyes scatter as I look at this piece! I can't imagine how someone drew it! The top right corner seems to be duller than the rest of it and I agree, it does seem as though the space is increasing.
