Donise English
Red Quilt (Solid Red Square Encaustic Painting on Panel with Geometric Detail)

2016

About the Item

encaustic on panel, 24 x 24 inches square abstract artwork, red square This modern, abstract red-orange encaustic painting on wooden board was completed by Poughkeepsie based artist, Donise English, in 2016. The square, 24 x 24 inch panel is layered with vivid red encaustic with a small geometric floral detail with fans of light yellow, blue and pink. Red encaustic is applied in short, smooth strokes creating a slight built up texture onto the surface. The work has clean, finished wood sides. English's signature is located on the back. About the work: The works on board are about the way visual diagrams present information that describes how something is made or the way it is. English is interested in drawing and collaging multiple layers of information that refer abstractly to maps, architectural drawings and blueprints or patterns and structures found in such things as roller coasters, power lines and fences. She uses gouache and encaustic in a series of layers that are a visual and ideological response to the previous layer to define the pictorial space. For each piece English creates a set of rules to follow about the use of a limited palette, a grid format, opacity of paper and whether a piece may include curving lines or maintain a rectilinear structure.
