spread my soul
Cheryl Pelavin Fine Arts, New York,NY 2008

The paintings in this exhibition were begun while in residency at the Julia and David White Artist's Colony in Costa Rica.
The title of the show comes from a line in a poem written by Julia White - "...spread my soul upon these pages..."
The paintings are painted wet-on-wet on Okawara paper. Little pieces are then cut away with delicate and precise detail. They form floating shadows on the wall as the light passes thru the painting.
