Line as an Element of Art; Invitation to My August Painting Exhibit
Line is an element of art. Line may be straight or curved; short or long; thick and thin, and more. Line also has emotional properties. Line can create feelings. These feelings can be sombre, tired or energetic. Lines can describe shape and provide direction. Eyes move from thick to thin line. Line can be a simple stroke or the edge of different values. This print is of my painting, The Grain Mill. In this painting the majority of lines are created by value change.
In August 2010 my paintings will be exhibited at the Art for All Canada’s Rainbow Gallery. The Gallery is at 80 Front St. East across from Toronto’s historic St. Lawrence Market. You enter the Gallery through Rainbow Cinemas, Market Square. Viewing the exhibits is free. At the top of this site is a link to Art for All Canada’s Gallery. Gallery hours are from 12:30 pm to 10:00 pm daily. My exhibit will be installed the afternoon on Friday July 30, 2010 and ends the morning of Monday August 30th. http://www.artforallcanada.org.
