ArtGram.Sheaf

Four in a run, two held back. A painting doing nearly everything it can, keeping one corner quiet.

12 paintings · reaches on Form, Abstraction, Color Range and Palette · holds on Texture and Contrast

The most typical Sheaf in the catalog: Fibers and Data. Closest of the 12 to the shape’s own mean on all six.

Where it sits

Texture: 3.4 above the catalog median of 3.0
Contrast: 3.5 above the catalog median of 3.5
Form: 4.1 above the catalog median of 3.0
Abstraction: 3.1 above the catalog median of 2.6
Color Range: 3.1 above the catalog median of 3.0
Palette: 3.4 below the catalog median of 4.0

Means across all 12. The signature is what holds for the shape as a whole, not a rule every painting obeys: a named silhouette cutting through a continuum, not a category with a boundary.

What it is next to

Let one more reading reach and it becomes Corona, and let one drop back and it becomes Frond or Sprig. Two paintings a single step apart are related in a way you can see, which is what makes the thirteen a language rather than a list.
