Turning Corners (detail), by Anne Gregory (acrylic, 24″ × 24″). “This painting began with overlapping squares that I divided into more and more details, much the same way looking at something very closely reveals its complexity. The title refers to the geometric composition. It also implies going in a new direction—passing a milestone.” More of the artist's work can be seen at http://www.annehearttgregory.com.
