stolen photos!

This is a painting by Keith Vaughan I found in the Tate Gallery last week. The rhythms of repeating shapes are great - how the blue drape continues the downward motion started from the raised leg of the seated figure. The drape then echoes the curves of the figure lying and the figure in the background creating a pyramid composition. He also seems to have created a visual device in the foreground that mirrors the negative space made by the raised leg of the lying figure.
