Painting # 070798 by Van Bankston is an elegant expression of minimalism. Slate gray lines on sterling silver gray work with the overall shape to form a thought provoking composition. The painting is signed on the back. Framing is not required, having clean canvas edges. "I hope my art encourages the viewer to stop, pause, and take a breath. My art is an invitation to the pleasure of the present moment through the qualities of color, balance, line, form, and texture for a lifegiving and empowering experience."
