Label TextDennis Beach’s three-dimensional paintings reflect his dual interest in painting and sculpture. The artist creates forms that replicate repetitive shapes he observes in nature, such as arcs of rippling water, in a way that “involves the viewer with that same sense of wonder that nature provides.”
