Double Golden Wedges, 2008

24 x 19”

Graphite, colored pencil, wax crayon, paper collage, and acrylic on paper

My formal explorations with the "Wedge" series visually emphasize triangular shapes playing a prominent role in the compositions. Initially, this idea began as a print study many years ago (see following etching). As an experiment in exploring the Golden Section in my layouts, Double Golden Wedges employs the use of 2 Golden Rectangles placed side by side or next to each other for the initial composition. The right angle triangles that are noticeable follow their respective Golden Rectangles.
