About the Item
Artist Comments
Artist Darlene McElroy presents a vintage image of a man donning a pleated ruff collar, opposite to a pair of eyes looking toward him. "Have you ever fallen in love with someone from another time or their work, whether it was writing, art, or music?" asks Darlene. "They may be long gone, but something about them touches your heart." She builds a compelling narrative with a dreamy and dimensional composition.
About the Artist
Darlene McElroy sees creating art as similar to reading Turkish coffee grounds. A story becomes revealed as one looks at the surface, texture and color. Her works use a variety of materials ranging from acrylic paints to photo transfers and collage. She currently lives in New Mexico and has been greatly influenced by the work of Robert Rauschenberg. She encourages viewers to search for their narrative interpretation when viewing a work.
