Don Voisine

SMOOTH SAILING

2016
oil on wood panel
24 x 20 inches

Carefully composed and beautifully painted, the abstract works of Don Voisine fully exploit the dynamic possibilities of spatial relationships on a two-dimensional plane. In Smooth Sailing, the symmetrical composition shifts slightly in the faded colors of the bottom section. Thin bands at the top and bottom, and the small gap of white between the tilting black shapes, inject a subtle sense of movement in this quietly evocative work. Vosine’s work has been shown throughout the US, and in the fall of 2016, a 15 year survey of his work was organized by the Center for Maine Contemporary Art
