Celebrated for his architecturally-themed paintings and drawings, Howard Lonn explores the urban landscape through an array of techniques including dripping, scraping, and layering. Lonn’s painted surfaces are highly textural and his use of colour judicious and expressive. In Semicircular Drive (2008) Lonn’s depiction of a building in tonal blues and greys conveys the coldness of concrete but juxtaposes the scene with a singular, bright orange traffic cone as its focal point. Compositionally, the painting attests to Lonn’s draftsmanship and sense of structure and balance with its diagonal separation and geometric lines that are intuitively contrasted with the arcing curb.
