The most striking element of the paintings of Audrey Walas is the heightened use of chiaroscuro, applied in the paintings here to both horses and female nudes. There is a mystery aroused by this technique as applied to these subjects, the horse perhaps in some way standing in for the sensitive, highly strung aspects of the female psyche. Mist, breath, attention... in short: the intangible is the focus of Walas' oils on canvas, which convey an unmistakeable air of atmosphere. |
