21. late 1990s — Frederick Wardy

21. late 1990s

Oil on canvas (1 to 4, 6)
Oil on two canvas boards mounted on wood (5)
Paint stick on paper and miscellaneous other mediums (7 to 37, 43 to 52)
Paint stick on mat boards, each with a beveled opening (38 to 42)

The works in this series have several components and sizes. The largest, a painting, measures 7'¼″ x 6', and the smallest, a work on paper, is 6″ x 4¾″. All the works deal with approximately conical or columnar forms and are nonrepresentational. Many forms or their lines seem to be in motion, and some forms also appear to move toward the right side of the canvas or paper. Wardy did numbers 38 through 42 on matboards, which were cut for drawings of a uniform size for another artist, who gave the matboards to Wardy.
