i've recently completed
10 new paintings that reflect my current obsession with geometric patterns, Navajo and other types of weaving, and of course stripes. a lot of these started out by first drawing a grid on the surface. i don't worry myself w/perfection, it's more about getting general ideas down. you can see from NY12#12 above, that the grid for the predominately black & white part is no where near perfect. i don't measure out my grids, i eye ball it. so when i try to execute a pattern on it, it comes out all kinds of wrong and crazy...PERFECT! not to mention it's a rarity when i can draw a pattern w/out messing up. i lose track of what i'm doing (get bored) and lots of times my eyes are just buggy from the repeating shapes and bright colors. victim of my own art making - hah! all of the 10 new beauties are available for purchase at
my Big Cartel shop.
