2.9.2. was made by starting with the simple structure of a grid of squares made of colour. After I've put the form down, anything after this point has to be discovered as a response to this and can't be planned. Colour is never seen by itself, the way you see a colour is dictated by what is around it, so after the initial layer of colours are laid down the balancing act begins. Everything is dictated by what came before it, much like how we experience the world visually, in that what we see is shaped by what we have seen before.
It's made with very fluid paint, so the actions of the making of the painting are visible due to the splashes, drips, and physicality of the mark making. This movement directs your eye across the surface, unable to settle in one spot or to be able to view the painting in one eyeful. - Lucienne O'Mara, 2024
