| Peter Doig at Werner, uptown. http://www.michaelwerner.com/exhibition/3832/information Deep chromas, grid work, free paint handling and relationship of study to large work characterize this show. |
 |
| Studio portrait |
 |
| Large version (small to follow shortly). Banded horizon. Textural shifts of black from figure to horse. Odd landscape-making boxes on the left. Magenta river. |
 |
| Urban animal |
 |
| Like Guston, Doig can handle an emerald green. |
 |
| Small study of horseback, in another room. |
 |
| Fishing study presented on easel with clamp light, best way to see the work. |
 |
| The larger painting. Water below has a lot of color not absorbed by the iPhone 4. |
 |
| Strong, heavy paint then ethereal, scrubbed areas interacting. |
 |
| At the incredible HC Westerman show at Venus over Mars, full of bite, pathos and political critique. http://www.artnews.com/2015/11/06/h-c-westermann-see-america-first-at-venus-over-manhattan/ |
 |
| Not to mention solid, brilliant technical skill in all areas of 2- and 3d. Here, Arizona, on the Navajo grounds I visited in 2013 while in residence at Wupatki National Monument. Could recognize the vibe and the space right away. |
 |
| And here a different view, an allee brutishly drawn, elegantly colored. |
 |
| John Walker, Looking Out to Sea at Alexandre. http://www.alexandregallery.com/john-walker |
 |
| He establishes a landscape, and then starts to riff. |
 |
| Pulling on the patterns of the African textiles he collects and reveres, |
 |
| and using pattern to navigate the space. |
 |
| On the LES, a new show by Eleanor Ray at Steven Harvey. http://www.shfap.com |
 |
| I'd not seen this work before. There were some real gems, this my favorite. |
 |
| She worked at the Judd Foundation in Soho for some of the works. The relationship of geometry and brushwork recalls, in posting more than in presence, Morandi. A small world of shifting colors and planes... |
 |
| Stephen Maine at the National Arts Club Marquis Gallery http://www.nationalartsclub.org/Default.aspx?p=DynamicModule&pageid=346933&vnf=1 |
 |
| Paint as print: opaque impasto overlays on transparent grounds. |
 |
| The tufts of paint on the overlays catch the light and with the simultaneous contrast of the colors, lead the eye to see blurs and vacillations |
 |
| Close to, the added surprise of light density on darker transparency surprises the eye. |
 |
