| Description |
Painting by Colleen Randall, Inflorescence #32 (oil on canvas, 44" x 58", 2007). The image illustrates a key body of work in Colleen Randall's mid-career from the 2000s: her deeply Romantic abstract paintings responding to nature and weather patterns like seasonal and climatic shifts, in materiality and form. These works were distinguished by their building of rhythmic, repeated layers, highly textured surfaces ranging from thick impastos to sculptural brushstrokes to thin veils of color, and impression of both spirituality and earthly connection. This body of work was publicly exhibited in prominent exhibitions and discussed in major art journals and daily press publications. |

| Purpose of use |
The image serves an informational and educational purpose as the primary means of illustrating a key mid-career body of work in Colleen Randall's career dating from the 2000s, when she produced deeply Romantic abstract paintings that responded to nature and weather patterns like seasonal and climatic shifts, through materiality and form. Critics related these meditations on sublime natural forces to abstract artists such as Mark Rothko, Clyfford Still and Helen Frankenthaler, and earlier landscape painters like J.M.W. Turner and Frederic Church. They combined abstract expressionist color-field and gestural techniques within a meticulous, additive process that mimicked the sedimentary layering of material in nature. Because the article is about an artist and her work, the omission of the image would significantly limit a reader's understanding and ability to understand this key body of work, which brought Randall ongoing recognition through exhibitions and coverage by major critics and publications. Randall's work of this type and this series is discussed in the article and by critics cited in the article. |
