Measuring an imposing 42” x 54”, this richly textured composition exemplifies Gerard’s expressive approach to abstraction, combining dramatic sculptural surfaces, sweeping organic forms, and a sophisticated palette of ivory, bronze, gold, charcoal, and subtle turquoise.

The painting’s extraordinary dimensional quality is achieved through heavily applied mixed media, creating dramatic raised textures and intricate surfaces that interact beautifully with changing light.

Unlike Gerard’s more brightly colored compositions, The Texture of Time I demonstrates a restrained and sophisticated palette, emphasizing texture, movement, and sculptural depth.

The reverse bears the artist’s handwritten title, signature, and dating information, including the notation “Repainted 2/13/14.” Earlier inscriptions also reference Instinct #30, suggesting the composition evolved through the artist’s creative process.

The work is signed on the front at the lower right.

A commanding original artwork with exceptional decorative presence, ideal for a contemporary residence, sophisticated interior, or collection of American Abstract Expressionist painting.
