A Line Is A Dot That Went For A Walk
"A line is a dot that went for a walk." This quote by artist Paul Klee inspired these creative interpretations of how dots and lines might evolve. Each painting is an 8 inch round panel that was a collaboration between Terri Dilling and Leisa Rich who passed the panels back and forth to create a variety of compositions. Materials include paint, glitter, microbeads, tubing, vinyl, thread and more! Some panels maintain the format of a flat painting, while others develop dimensionally and break the confines of the edge, going for quite a walk! Available for $200 each or discounted at $700 for set of 4, $1000 for set of 6, or $3000 for the whole set. You can create your own unique grouping.
