Carol John’s paintings, whether diminutive or grand in scale, are all predicated on repeating marks and shapes. Dots, lines, and squares all multiply to create vibrating forms and surfaces that resonate with playful pop color. The repetitive forms are an echo of John’s studio practice, a disciplined daily routine spanning decades that has resulted in hundreds of paintings. Each piece remains a candidate for re-working as long as she has access to it, evidence of an unyielding drive to explore pattern, color, and composition.
