Transitions
Judith Weinshall Liberman
The TRANSITIONS series of acrylic paintings was begun in 2022, when I was 93 years old. After publishing numerous books over a period of many years, including ten books of sonnets in 2021, I felt the need to get back to painting.
First I created a series of acrylic paintings called PATTERNS. In this series, I painted small squares in various geometric patterns, using mostly primary colors on a white ground This series was followed by a series of WEAVING PATTERNS, acrylic paintings on a black ground, in which I used both primary and secondary colors. The WEAVING PATTERNS series was designed to show, by means of small painted squares, the patterns which result when different colors are woven together. The TRANSITIONS series is more inclusive. Through the use of the ancient art of stenciling, this series utilizes the whole color palette in smooth transitions from one color to the next. As in life itself, although distinct events may cause changes, more often important transitions are subtle and rather imperceptible when they occur.toggle "expand gallery" for full screen viewing
