Artist statement

Space, it is a wide endless wasteland. However even emptiness has beautiful secrets within it. That is exactly the message that I was trying to convey when creating my art piece. In my piece I really tried to focus on the movement and thickness of the paint lines. When first conceiving ideas, It was important to me to make the entire piece a focal point instead of just one particular part of the picture. That way It can be taken in for all it is. The painting was meant to have an abstract feel, lined with a sense of freeness. It was tough trying to figure what my painting should be, or even if should be a painting in the first place. To say the least it was a very strenuous and slow process. However once I decided what my piece should be it was engraved in my mind. Sometimes I can visualized an idea so well I can feel as though it is right in front of me, on the other hand, I can be so blocked that it seems as though any ideas I have immediately fall right out of my brain and boom, crash, splash onto the ground they go. This project piece was conjured in my mind relatively quickly. I put a lot of effort into placing things where they are and color schemes, and overall look, because of course I am a sort of perfectionist when it comes to art, and of course nothing ever seems finished. However once I stepped back and absorbed what I had created and then I smiled and was surely satisfied and proud of the work I had done.
