The Linda Hodges Gallery presents new paintings by noted Northwest painter
Lucinda Parker for the month of February. For over four decades, Lucinda
Parker's highly energetic and formally abstract paintings have captivated
viewers. Her impasto application of degraded color on varied fields of
contrasting hue create a vista of solid forms that seem to emerge from in a
densely patterned background. Distinctly sculptural, these shapes are often
referenced in nature, but the intention of Parker is to create a purely
abstract scene. Orbs, branches, rays of undetermined origin inhabit these
"landscapes," creating work that is architecturally genuine, yet
determinedly organic. "I'm always trying to transform the world into a
certain kind of abstract painted form..." states Parker.
