Philip Hardy is an artist and originator of the Noodle Paintings. Noodle Paintings is a new series of abstract works from Philip Hardy. The pieces are constructed out of underpaintings that are then adorned by paint extrusions, applied in organic, curvilinear patterns — like noodles of color that swim or gather over the surface. The works exude curiosity and elan, with a humorous bent that is braided with a metaphysical search for the meaning of painting.
