Laura Newman's paintings combine geometric delineations of space, ephemeral color fields, dynamic lines and organic forms, resulting in atmospheric images evocative of representational landscapes, but always opening up to something more, something beyond.
At the sides of this painting, two rectangular panes of translucent color tilt into a crisp white space spanned by three distinct horizontal rows-of colored blocks, a stripped down seascape and a rose colored whorl.
