I posted recently about the side of the bag that says “YOU CAN’T PLAN FOR SCREEN MAGIC” — I love that side of the bag. And I love this other side of the bag just as much.
Layers and layers added to layers and layers… transformed over time and through process, to become something beautiful. Not to mention: it’s a much needed balance to the loudness of the other half of the bag. Featured on this side (shown above) is a part of the original painting that has a lot of physical layers. Paper on top of paper, with some worn burlap(?) that is painted and more paint on top of that. Cheryl recently said:
“I have been thinking in terms of additive and subtractive methods. I find that I am much more comfortable adding to than subtracting from.”
I love the fact that this side of the bag shines a light on her exceptional ability to create art by adding.
