Dog Leg or Something (2003)Oil painting
by Don Keene
£743.69
Original artwork description
This conglomeration of spirited oil paint passages applied and smeared with delight, while certainly projecting movement, energy and color, here ultimately congeal into the animal-like form alluded to in the title, as is evidenced on the far left edge of the panel: a dog leg, or, if not, certainly something resembling one.
The rustic, imperfect application of nails, primer and wood filler on the surface and edges are intentional qualities meant to keep in concert with the informal tone inherent in art made on discarded "found wood," one that seemed appropriate for the casual, informal feel of this piece.
Influences, among others, include Max Beckmann, Edvard Munch, Bob Thompson, George McNeil, Richard Diebenkorn, David Park, Francesco Clemente, R.B. Kitaj and Willem de Kooning.
