It doesn't really look like the piece at all...but I remember being awestruck by the piece when I saw it. I've always been a fan of Miro, especially recently, and I think this most recent piece was an attempt at accomplishing some of the gorgeous simplicity that Miro has. While much of my work has been packed to the brim with mark-making, Miro is much more decisive, much more abrupt. I don't think I quite got there with the bottom work, but it's on the way.
Don't get me wrong, I still like the bottom piece..,I think it goes very well with the work I've been doing while also providing a slight calm, at least in comparison to recent work. I would like to see it taken a step further though, a step closer to simplicity...
I guess that's the good thing about being a young artist...everything's a process, everything's a step toward your future...you can continue to push yourself to try new things and you don't have to be disappointed if it doesn't quite work.
