Brian Edmonds, A Darker Dark, acrylic and pastel on canvas, tondo 12 inches in diameter (courtesy of the artist)
As part of the In Process series, Paul Behke posts about the development of several tondo paintings by Brian Edmonds.
Behnke writes: "Edmonds allows us a step by step look at two recent works: A Darker Dark and The Brute. Both examples speak to the importance of process and materials in Edmonds' painting as he rethinks and reapplies form and color again and again. This process is made more difficult as Edmonds composes within the untethered format of the tondo, forgoing the comfort and security that a more typical rectangle or square would provide."
