Nice Try, Tie  acrylic on wood panel  12x16  SOLD

I'm a bit happier these days and am making work that reflects that. This piece and others that follow this post refer to my studies in geology, my time in the military, a deep attraction to stripes, and a recently developed appreciation for the benefits of meditation and meditative work. Maybe the attraction to stripes has something to do with how they vibrate visually or describe a texture that begs to be felt. I don't know what it is, but I enjoy creating them, toying with them, and looking at them immensely.

sidenote:  For simplicity's sake, I've included prices with the title/medium/size info. If you see something that speaks to you that you'd like to purchase anywhere on this site, please don't hesitate to contact me: joegolney@gmail.com , olneyjoe@hotmail.com , or give me a call on my cell if you have that handy. In most cases I can ship it out the following day.

Thanks, and I hope you enjoy the posts!

Joe
