Recent Paintings
Here are five new paintings from Bennett. "Rightly Too" is the last of the series he started almost a year ago.
About "Angle Right" and "Three Four Time" he says that they use a triangle in a totally different way.
And about the last pair he writes: "I have always been captivated by the ancient stone monuments in Scotland and England. I particularly like seeing them silhouetted against the sky. These new 'stone' paintings are more free and more organic than most of my work, but I liked the way making these paintings allowed me to move paint around."

Bennett, It's interesting that the viewer (THIS viewer, anyway) becomes an active element in your stone paintings. Looking at them, I feel an impulse to connect the shapes — to make them touch or click together. But of course, they don't move, except in my mind -- and that urge to make them move keeps me looking at them. Terese
