Abstract Painting and Collage by James Edward Scherbarth: Title: Triage

A dark arch with a pale egg inside, a brown tower beside it, and pink notes scattered like afterthoughts.

This abstract painting and collage, Triage, is by James Edward Scherbarth, dated 2020, in mixed media on paper, signed and dated 11-07-2020 on verso. Collage entered fine art in the early 20th century, letting torn and pasted papers sit on equal terms with paint. Here a creamy white ground holds an olive-brown block at left with a white oval and a black one. To the right, a dark plum arch frames a large pale oval. Small rose shapes drift between them. The sheet is 16 inches wide and 12 high, the image 14 by 10.25.

Sorted by urgency, and none of it in a hurry.
