Let it roll: Ring Around the Rosie, Ode to Eva

A Pocket Full of Posies, an Ode to Eva
This has been a liberating painting to work on. Simple, raw and concentric, making a meditation on the spirit of Eva Hesse and her works featured during a show around 1964. Her drawings and paintings began to push the boundaries between painting and sculpture, with her reliefs on panels.

This piece for me was a simple exercise using her pattern of circles, though mine are more ordered, as is my tendency. When working with free hand circles, the artist is forced to face the imperfections of the line. My challenge was to relent the battle.

There is something so light and liberating about being able to call a piece finished with so little on the canvas and so many obvious mistakes. I have ideas about next possible steps, but I am happy right now to call it done and let myself feel through it.

There is such a strong impulse, for me anyway, as an artist, to keep pushing on and on and fixing and adding more and more to a piece, Holding can be a challenge. With this piece I intentionally set out to keep it simple and keep it raw and rough and a little dizzying...A pocket full of posies.

    All of my life, from my earliest memories as I child, I have felt as though I view the world through some sort of magical frame. To this day I carry that feeling, as though I can look anywhere and see beauty, see nature and objects sparking. Even in a garbage-strewn alley, I can see the poetry of the place, as a breathing image right there on the lenses of my eyes.
