Kansas 8

Title: Kansas 8
Medium: Oil pastel, acrylic, and marker on canvas (hand-applied)
Dimensions: 18 x 24 inches
Style: Abstract Expressionism

Description:
Kansas 8 unfolds as a meditation on expanse and light. Layered by hand in oil pastel, acrylic, and marker, the surface reveals shifting gestures where blue dominates, tempered by passages of yellow and white. The palette suggests both openness and illumination, a field where sky and ground dissolve into abstraction.

The number in the title carries a quiet rhythm – a symbol of continuity, of cycles repeating – while “Kansas” anchors the work in a sense of place without binding it to geography. What emerges is not a literal landscape but an atmosphere: space distilled into color, gesture, and movement.
