nature in art

I really like the work of the artist Phillip Taaffe. I love the repetition of natural motifs he uses to create his powerful and compelling paintings. In a former life I made my living as a textile designer and I will always love pattern. The power of the repetition of things always attracts my attention, so not surprisingly, I think Mr. Taaffe's work is fabulous. To see more of his work, look for one of the many wonderful catalogs of his work available through the Gagosian gallery.
