Golawon, mixed media on linen, 54 x 72″
A show of my new work opens this month at Lyman-Eyer Gallery in Provincetown. In that mysterious way that work emerges, these latest pieces began with some of my signatory themes and then headed off in a whole new direction. Form, color, surface and size have all taken surprising turns. It has been a few years since I was working in the 6 foot range, and returning to larger formats feels satisfying. It requires you to transition from the wrist and elbow moving across the surface to the whole body making the gesture.
If you are going to be anywhere on the Cape later this month, I hope you will stop in. And if you are not on my mailing list and would like to be, send me your snail mail via email (dbarlow@gmail.com).

I am so sorry that I will only be in Ptown next week and not be able to stay for your show. This new work looks fabulous! I’m dying to see it in person. Congratulations on this move into a new direction!
