has become one of the largest multi-media collages I have ever tackled...
I removed some of the wooden dividers so there would be a greater variety of size...which gave me 77 compartments...I left some compartments empty...because all art needs negative space...right?!
The piece took me about a month...a little bit here, a little bit there...it evolved as I worked on it...
and the theme of a passage of time emerged...
the past...
the present...
and the future...
I enjoyed tinkering with it...figuring what worked where...and how to attach/secure everything soundly...
it really is imbued with...
It will be the pearl of my booth at Fresh Paint...I hope you'll stop by to see it...
Fantastic piece, love your description of how it evolved. I am sure it will be the gem in your booth. xox

ReplyDeleteI really like this piece, and how you play around with the scale of things. What patience to build, but it does seem right that it took its own sweet time to evolve, being about time and all. It will be a showstopper, I am sure.
