"Form is the outer expression of inner meaning." (Wassily Kandinsky)
The brilliance of life and transformation, aging and change is what Irene Dahl wants to show with her newest work on copper-plates which have to go through an extensive aging process and then are installed on wood - cradle and painted with metallic oil colours. The painting process is for Irene like a meditation and she wants to create quiet and pleasing art that inspires the viewer to meditate too.

http://www.spokesmanreview.com/tools/story_pf.asp?ID=166319 "Two painters set to demonstrate how they create art indoors are Lorraine Krank and Irene Dahl of Spokane. "I'll be finishing a couple of my latest copperplate paintings," said Dahl. Prior to painting, each plate has been "aged" with acid washes and attached to a wood panel. "The acids result in dark and rich green patinas," Dahl said. She and Krank are sharing the Holley Mason Building lobby across the street from the Interplayers Theatre, 174 S. Howard St." "First Night Spokane Visual Arts Venues" Archive link: http://www.spokane7.com/blogs/artbeat/archive.asp?postID=4550 "• Holley-Mason Building, 157 S.
