Meticulous and intricate quilting

while the richly textured surfaces add depth and dimension

its bold swaths of color and painterly aesthetic make it a delightful addition to any wall

sanded and sponge painted 3 times with a variety of rust and golden colors

Still Life No.76 P09636-P00031 Meticulous and intricate quiltingChris Wheeler's art is a visual record of events; he tries to capture "moments of perfection" once they show themselves. Showcasing modernist conventions including simple imagery and minimalist color design, this mixed media collage was crafted on paper handmade from cotton, mulberry, and straw and mounted on a wood board; acrylic paints as well as freehand cut shapes applied via a little known wheat paste technique make this a truly striking work.
