From Our Perspective

Last night we attended the opening for From Our Perspective: A National Women's Art Exhibition. There were quite a few nice pieces at the show. Kitty and I in front of my two admissions, Waves and Rain.
Work by the artist Crystal Wagner, Aggregation. I was really drawn to this piece. I loved the folded intaglio prints and her line sensibility. She used layering and translucent materials to make a beautiful installation.

ok i realized "colors" was almost a dumb comment, but i like the tones that you work in and the mostly blacks/light areas.

maybe i just confused you more.

Pam,
You are too funny. Thanks for your comment. I just started working with mostly whites and greys after my MFA because my thesis was so infused with color that I needed a break. It is simple and I hope meaningful. A little shadow and line can show a lot of emotion. At least that is what I am striving for.
