Title: Floating Circle Series #51
Medium: Glass and Acrylic on Aluminum
Dimensions: 12"h x 12"w

Floating Circles are textured paintings featuring a prominent circular shape that dominates the composition. The circle is imperfect and organic in its form, made with fused dichroic glass, rather than geometrically precise. Within this shape, there is a dynamic range of colors with yellows, blues, oranges, and greens, creating a reflective effect that suggests movement and energy. The circle is set against a textured blue background, which shows visible brushstrokes and variations in hues, adding depth and character to the piece. The textural aspect of the painting is quite pronounced, giving the artwork a tactile, three-dimensional quality. The vivid color contrasts and heavy impasto technique create a sense of vibrancy and visual interest.
