ENERGY RELEASE 1 (1999), BY BOB RANKIN
ACQUIRED FROM THE ARTIST, RALEIGH, NORTH CAROLINA, MAY 1999
MIXED MEDIA (ACRYLIC, GEL MEDIA, OILS) ON PAPER
When I first saw this work, some of the swirls in the painting reminded me of pictures I've seen showing the paths followed by high-energy particles in a particle accelerator... so I decided this painting should be called Energy Release. Since I was the first person to purchase one of this series of works, Bob named it Energy Release 1.
