Movement, Moments and Magic<\/strong><\/p>\n

38 Art-Tars<\/strong>, moving and grooving in celebration of spirit and color, treat viewers with respect.
\nThe series goals was too move the eye across the surface like a cultural pre-electricity arcade game and have bright colors heighten the visual excitement. These are as close to Kandinsky that Anders will get. A nod to Miro, Tobey, and Chagall, and many others, is in order.

\"\"<\/a>

Tar Spirits<\/strong>, Tar Column<\/strong> and Tar Dance<\/strong> are 36 inches wide.<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n

Large swashes<\/em> of custom made color, spun atop textured backgrounds, begin the visual dance. Point – counterpoint, balance – counterbalance<\/strong> and marks – unmarks drive movement and directions. These may be the most dramatic of Anders surfaces.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Egg Man<\/strong> and Tars on Parade<\/strong> are each 36 inches tall.<\/p><\/div>\n

Early Art Tars began in 1988<\/strong>. Studio stops along the way included Econdido, CA., Klamath Falls, OR., Tulelake CA., and San Diego, CA. The series was finished in 2009 except for a couple of large pieces that are currently on the work bench in progress.

\"\"<\/a>

Internal Cleaning<\/strong>, Mona Joy Jester<\/strong> and Trio Escaping<\/strong> Make an attractive triptych.<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n

Texture triumphs dancing across the surface with carefree abandon. Music has a role in the Art-Tars. There are rhythms and colorful notes<\/strong> scattered across a score. Foreground elements are solos against a dense compositional tapestry. Art-Tars = Fusion.
\n

\"\"<\/a>

Green Flash<\/strong> and Tar Drips<\/strong> are each 40 inches tall.<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n

Anders thinks of his vertical paintings as power totems<\/strong>. Art-Tars are more than decoration, they are constrained momentum unfolding into perpetual motion. Inspired by nature they invigorate and motivate, “lower your stress levels…<\/em>” <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Inter-snaking<\/strong>, Building Blocks<\/strong>, Rising<\/strong> and Tempest<\/strong> are all 48 inches tall.<\/p><\/div>\n

Imagine a room ful<\/strong>l of Art Tars, in handsome frames, staring back at you. Can you see the music?<\/p>\n
