About the Item
Crowell's abstract paintings are in the challenging media of oil paint and cold wax. "Techniques I originated in my practice 20 years ago are now widely recognized and taught. My process is complex and physically demanding, involving many layers of paint and wax that I scratch, imprint, and dissolve to reflect the forces of nature. I find a resonance between this process and my connection to the ancient landscapes I love."
The visual vocabulary of Crowell’s work has evolved from experiences in the ancient, rugged landscapes of northern New Mexico, where she now lives, and in other remote places, such as the west coast of Ireland where she spends time. The dramatic vistas of these landscapes are moving and rich in complex colors and textures, organic shapes, and luminous atmosphere.

There was one other guy at the small bar table in an otherwise empty room, waiting for his coffee to be handed to him. He turned and dumped half of it down my front. I immediately recognized him as none other than Brice Marden. He apologized profusely, but I stopped him and said: 'No problem: how often is it that Brice Marden dumps coffee on your pants? They're worth more now.' We both had a good laugh. At any rate - I was certainly channeling his early work when I began work on this series. They are made with oil and beeswax on wood panels. While they look Minimalist at first glance, there are subtle shifts in color and texture that distinguish them from hard-edged abstraction. For me, it has always been about the surface, and the materials. Wax has a character unlike anything else. I use wax both hot (encaustic) and in a cold mixture with turpentine, blended with oil. The complementary underpainting, setting the stage for the wax and oil later...Category
