Donald Schenkel creates subtle colour gradients with oil paint that express rhythm, depth and serenity. All of his works result from a dialogue with the materials in question. Approaching oil paint as a material that exposes the qualities and characteristics of pigments and colours, Donald is able to evoke impressions of translucency and reflections, creating a sense of endless space and light. There is also the depth expressed by shadows and dark gradients in which the lighter colours seem to dissolve. These gradients contain a soothing subtlety that makes them the natural viewpoint for contemplation; a sense of silent wonder.
