I'm hugely enjoying these paintings by Angelina Gualdoni. The three particular pieces here are part of a series or section of her website called 'held in place.' That definitive title in contrast with the ethereal titles of the individual paintings like 'Without a Net to Catch the Days' creates the same great tension that the paintings have. They seem absolutely rooted in a particular moment, a particular time of day or point of view but slip through your fingers (eyes, really) and dissolve into abstract color and line. They are specific and deeply personal which, in turn, makes them feel universal. That all too familiar feeling of Sunday afternoon sun slipping away...

Glorious color relationships and compositions of space. Looking at them makes me believe I might not have to face Monday morning tomorrow if I stay right here and keep looking for long enough.
