Ethan Harper’s Sportscar Collection II

A study in velocity and restraint, this work from John Richard's Ethan Harper Sportscar Collection II distills the kinetic drama of automotive form into a composition of acrylic and wood measuring twenty-five inches square. The interplay of textured and gloss finishes against the gel medium creates a surface that reads differently as light travels across it throughout the day — part painting, part object, emphatically both. At two inches of depth, it occupies the wall with quiet authority, asserting itself as a piece that rewards prolonged looking.
