GOOD TROUBLE

$4,800.00

"Good Trouble" by Stephen Lucas is a vibrant 18x24-inch abstract acrylic painting that exemplifies the artist's signature "non-representational" style. While the work is entirely abstract, it is structured with a sophisticated, interlocking geometry that suggests a sense of internal architecture and movement.

The painting features a dense arrangement of organic and geometric shapes, held together by bold, black curvilinear outlines. This "stained glass" effect is a hallmark of Lucas’s technique, which he often begins with the blind contour drawing method of drawing without looking at the surface to bypass conscious thought and access the subconscious.

The work uses a primary base of cerulean and cobalt blues, contrasted with earthy ochres, terracotta oranges, and muted sage greens. Pockets of white and pale yellow provide "breathing room" amidst the complex layers.

Within the larger forms, Lucas employs subtle textures, including stippling (small dots) and fine cross-hatching, which add a sense of physical depth to the flat acrylic surface.

Despite the heavy black lines, there is a rhythmic energy. The shapes seem to "tumble" or shift across the canvas, reflecting the artist’s goal of capturing the "essence of life" rather than a literal object.

The title is a clear nod to the famous phrase by American civil rights leader and Congressman John Lewis, who urged people to "get in good trouble, necessary trouble" to bring about change.
