I’ve been working on New Perspective for nine months, a long time for me. I am working from words and experience, not photos.
There is a lot going on that is … involving. Now I am working more closely with Gregg on sculpture. I have worked on 2-d paintings and drawings for a long time, and this third dimension is pushing me around. I represent gravity in my paintings by letting the paint drip. In a sculpture, gravity will literally take me and throw me on the ground. Ouch! That’s how I got involved in making Poly: means many. I am tentative, but I’m getting bolder, more confident. Or so I tell myself.
This relates to this painting New Perspective. This is grappling with my transition into the third dimension. I have worked on it from every vertical direction. Maybe it’s time to put it on the floor? I won’t work on it above my head, too much trouble.
