Back on the Market / by patrick pryor

This painting from 2007 is one of four paintings that have come back on the market from a collector who has downsized. It is for sale, and each of the four paintings is 36 x 36 inches.

It’s a real treat for those collectors who feel as if they missed out on collecting works from this series back in 2007. There was so much freedom in these works then! That was what I wanted to express - was freedom, and passion and joy and all those things. It is as if the works expressed the feeling of making them. The act of painting was joyful and freeing and spontaneous. The works are unplanned except for the condition of a frame, a rather atmospheric space inside the “window” and some action and drama in that space; created at first with drawn lines of paint from a Elmer’s Glue bottle and held pencil-like in my right hand and executed in a few seconds - in a burst of controlled - patterned perhaps - release of energy.

I once jokingly/seriously asked a friend of her work: “Is your work all as sexual as it looks?”
She replied, “even more so”

I might say the same, and I might not. The less said the better. I prefer to allow the work to be open to interpretation to anyone with enough interest to consider it.

Here are the other three:
