I had my fiI rst crit of the year today. The feedback was to go with my inner voice as this has much more power than the magazine quotes I have been holding onto. I am happy with this decision and advice. It was felt that the sample paintings that worked best were the ones where text is used as part of the landscape of a painting and not as simple text paintings. But that saying, not to close down my options at the moment as I have alot going on. To push further the ideas of Hot Pink Christopher Wool type text paintings on feminist issues, to do a Sean Landers VOMIT painting as I am calling it and also to develop further the idea of text in landscape.
