Work on Paper by Mark Westervelt: The Three Graces: #3

A sprawled, mustard figure with a small white head perched at the top.

This work on paper is by Mark Westervelt, and is ca. 2004. It is paint & mixed media on paper. His paint skins are made by painting on plastic and peeling the sheet off, so the side against the plastic is glossy and the side exposed to air is matte. A collage panel in tan, ochre and gold with a ruled border. A reclining figure of cut shapes stretches an arm across the top while a small white head sits at upper left and bent legs fill the lower half. It is 5 inches wide and 7 high.

Lounging in layers of scraps and unbothered by gravity.
