a modern menu

light poured diagonally through the windows of ivan anthony this afternoon, just in time to illuminate my visit to a fine white room filled with saskia leek's exquisite paintings. here fractured and pastel smiles of oil created partial abstractions that toy with landscapes and still-lives.

hints of berries, peaches, edifices, seascapes, and radiance can be seen. leek, ever the gifted colourist paints and paints creating melancholy plaints and soft concretions.
