Artwork of Carolyn Hawkes

Circle & Line

These four paintings derive from man's historical search for a more accurate value of pi.

Four Seasons		Quintessence		Bifurcation

Miranda		Redshift		Earth		Pastoral

Solstice		Equinox		Orbital

The circle, with its perfect symmetry is a symbol of spirituality, whereas the square is a symbol of the human condition.

Here and Now		Past and Future		Then and There

Cut strips from two pictures are combined in these 3 collage works.

56 Green		32 Blue		53 Blue

22 Green		63 Orange		22 Violet		35 Blue

Counterpoint		Encounter		Chromatic Progression

These works are studies in the contrast and assimation of colour. 
Shredded strips of reproductions of paintings by artists who have influenced me are incorporated within the collages.
