Little Composition in Red
Wayne Sleeth25 x 30 cm | 9 x 11 in
Subject: Abstract
Tags: Red, Rothko
Original painting in oil on canvas.
"A smaller variant on Composition in Red, also available, counterbalancing a deep, glossy red ground with a textured icy blue-grey 'form'. A permanently-relevant question for the artist: what constitutes an image? Resembling a colourfield painting, this is rather an exercise in concept and minimalism."

Currently based in France, Wayne Sleeth is a painter of personal discovery, composing a work to his own evolving rhythm. Perceiving the act of painting a complex composition of hidden memory. Sleeth chooses to form open-ended ‘scapes’, whereby memories are shaped as inviting sensations. Landscapes and skylines become abstract forms, while emotive representations gain tangible presence.
