Purple Square Door

Part of a series of paintings which depicts different doors and different openings. Inspired by my walking journeys between home and the unemployment office in May/June of 2009.

They are done on canvases which originally were meant to be other images and have now received at least 5 layers of acrylic.

Personally, I find doors fascinating, as the face of a home or a place. They appear to say one thing about the place, but can present another upon entry.

This door is the second in a series of square themed doors. One of the plays with the planes of the vertical surface, creating a sense of depth via perspective. The simple door-within-a-door has a small slot for letters, but the door itself has no knob.
