I am an artist, not a writer. My Intent is not to educate, enlighten or inspire but rather to clarify my motivations to myself. I find that when I write down the thoughts and reasons that I take certain paths, it helps me to avoid repeating the same mistakes over and over again. Let's face it, authentic work evolves through a series of mistakes, lessons learned and options eliminated.

On the Brink
"On the Brink" 35"x 40" polished lightweight cement and dry pigments on rigid foam panel
These really are exciting. Are you working from both sides or only in reverse on this one? It appears to be from both sides. Makes it stronger I think. Love the hits of bright colors, and repeated wormy design motif. Fun and very brave exploration of your medium. Do you have some new ideas brewing after that gallery talk? A great surprise to see you there.
Thanks Marianne! This piece was still done from one side. I am still adhering to the self imposed rules whenever possible. Yes, I found the gallery talk invigorating. It gave me the license to be less critical of myself.
Wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jeane, it's good to hear from you.
