"Serenity Mist" is painted on 3 canvas shapes.

The left hand section is painted lavender (after Pollock's "Lavender Mist") onto raw canvas preserving it's raw canvas stripe. The centre canvas has a traditional white ground. It's triple stripes ascend tonally into grey. The right hand canvas is also raw canvas. It has 7 stripes of ascending color and tone, from raw ground to lavender. The overall color descends tonally from left to right, while the stripe's tones ascend. The painting suggests a lifting fog, or a demystification, a clarity emerging from uncertainty.

The black stripes of "The Gates" are painted in reverse off a black ground.

They are cross-hatched in 4 directions to suggest interference like a moire' effect. To their right black, white and grey masses are supended against a quilted blue diamond-plate pattern. These effects subtly shift against each other like reflections on a still pond.
