'Close To Nothing', an Interpretive Art Work by Colorado Contemporary Artist, Susan M. Gibbons




'Close To Nothing'

Encaustic on Cradled Board

48" x 48" x 1.5"

$5000

This work is the final piece in the collaboration with Denver poet, Wayne A. Gilbert.  The poem's title, cadences and interstices - in black and white,  was based on my Interstice series.  This collaboration allowed me to revisit my former work and reinterpret it in a new way.  The piece features a deep, dark blue with pearlesque and iridescent colors within the white area.  A small stroke of yellow helps to separate the two contrasting values.
