Statement

It is my intent, with a fascination to a Serpentine Curve, usage as an instrument involving the overall beauty of the image. The Serpentine Curve is with the exception that Isaac Newton's classification of cubic curves, 1701, but functions as follows: serving as intersecting through the partial ellipse, section of circle, XY axis perpendicular intersect and tangent to the cubic parabola. The cubic parabola is tangent to the circle section. These relationships present an interweaving of linear vocabulary. Of course, there is the ongoing theme of collinearity characteristic of my work. The asymptote in the upper central region serves as a separation of magenta to yellow; in addition creates an interchange for positive/negative space.
