Post’s recent body of work is divided into two formats: colored pencil drawings on paper, and larger plaster and acrylic works on masonite or aluminum panels.  Both represent the exploration of line and space invoked by the mysterious interactions of time, reaction and memory. The result is a visual history of “stripping-down” a complex problem.

The artist’s paintings create a sense of tension for the viewer as the layers of plaster intermingle with the harsh line work. By overlapping and interlaying sheer layers of paint and stained plaster the viewer loses an understanding of which color comes first. Rather than delineating between foreground and background the work displays a relationship between drawn borders and the landscapes within them.
