With black oil paint on a gessoed panel, Jennifer Day paints monochromatically to reveal the drama of water without the infinite options of local color. Gray scale sensitivity and range is her goal. To achieve this, she works reductively by rubbing the surface and scraping her finger methodically through the paint to reveal the light beneath. The artist works between two opposites: the geometry of the picture plane versus the challenge of the nebulous, the fleeting, and the impulse of nature to escape the plane altogether.
