Blanched Bulwark II calls to mind the early work of Robert Rauschenberg of the early 1950s. As with Rauschenberg's work, texture plays a major role in this large vertical work on canvas. Strong horizontal lines provide emphasis and lend movement to this piece. A textural feel is achieved with shorter brushstrokes and dabs of color. A muted color palette in bone, ecru, slate, and charcoal pulls together this fine work of art.
