A large and striking work by contemporary artist Janeth Murray McKendrick, incorporating a plank of wood into the overall composition. This plank extends to both sides, giving the piece an extraordinary dimensional quality. Sure-handed marks, strokes and composition along with astute use of color display a remarkable set of skills. This Tennessee artist also works with ceramics, which explains her interest in the unique use of two different substrates for the paint and the extension of the "arms", giving the piece its sculptural quality.
