About the Item
Clean and precise, carefully ordered blocks of color in shades of golden yellow cream, gray sage green, blue, and a dark coral shade of red are bright against the pale beige color of the archival paper. Horizontal blocks of golden yellow and shades of green-gray frame the composition, while thin horizontal stripes of ochre and red with patterned sections with a grid of thin lines contrast the larger blocks of color.
Signed, dated and titled on recto. 16 x 12 inches (image size), 22 x 20 inches (paper size).
Elizabeth Gourlay’s work is a meditation on color and form, a gradual yet progressive analysis leading to a complex vocabulary of shapes, color and line. Musical composition, emotional states and our collective subconscious resonate within bars, lines and blocks of color. The abstract forms emerge, layer and shift in precisely ordered, carefully composed rhythms. The artist contemplates the elements that make color in reduced forms come to life: size, flatness, relation to its edges, and how the presence of other colors affect how it is perceived.
Gourlay draws inspiration from shapes found in everyday life and in her studio. The observed shapes either remain as they are or become simplified to their essential geometric elements. Subtleties in color, area, edge or orientation are the catalyst for emotive responses. Palette is minimized; the artist rarely uses a wide palette within one work. Rather, a broad range of colors are explored and then reduced. Gourlay investigates color properties: complementary or analogous color, value, saturation and color harmony vs. color anomaly.
Elizabeth’s Gourlay’s work has been shown extensively throughout the United States. The artist is the recipient of numerous residencies, fellowships and awards including Artist in Residence at the studio of Sol LeWitt in Spoleto, Italy. Gourlay’s work has been written about in The New Criterion, Painters’ Table and Gorky’s Granddaughter, to name a few. Gourlay earned her MFA at Yale University School of Art, New Haven, CT, and her BA from Edinburgh College of Art, Edinburgh, Scotland. The artist lives and works in CT.

- Balancing act 4By Tracey AdamsLocated in London, GBGouache, graphite and ink on Rives paper. Unframed. Balancing Act 4 is part of a series of works on paper started in 2016.
