Artists Describing Their Art:
Wayne Ensrud - Wayne Ensrud aEUR" Paintings aEUR~Harmony in ContradictionsaEURtm aEUR~Harmony in ContradictionsaEURtm is another way of saying harmony through opposites decorative variety, textural differences, dense versus transparent, geometric versus gestural, open versus closed, calm versus active aEUR" all of these aspects interwoven to compose a balanced harmonic resolve. The surfaces are lively but the overall effect is calm and composed into a harmonious balance and unity. They are not mere symbols or decorations. My desire is for the paintings to be a bridge to evoke feelings of freedom and transcendence that vibrate refreshing energies. I combine a complex of spatial ins and outs and variations of speed via high-keyed, energetic layers of color. Ecstatic and light-drenched, my paintings reflect a lyrical impulse and visible joy that are charged with a concentrated reaction to my natural and emotional environments. My recent paintings are essentially abstract non-object, however, the structured approach remains true to what Oskar Kokoschka revealed to me.

They care for eachothere, some more than others, but to be compleatly real we are the worst animals of them all.
