Silent Barks

These painting are from a recent and ongoing series titled “Silent Barks.” They are about bark tree patterns and also from animal barks that appear to be measurable. These patterns are interesting because they might have meanings similar to written language. Although I am unable to understand any of the barks from trees or animals, these paintings try to depict and bring awareness of the patterns. In the future I might continue with an in depth exploration of forms for further understanding.
