Remembering Helen Frankenthaler..
Art books. I get inspiration from leafing through pages of art and stories about artists.
It's fascinating to see how unique an artist can get with simple supplies.
Just playing around, splashing color, mixing, diluting......emoting
One such inspiration for me is Helen Frankenthaler, died just the other day, 83 years old.
She explored using bare canvas and stains...set the stage for the rest of us.
.... big beautiful crazy stained canvases.
I discovered her a while back in a art book belonging to my daughter.
Then, of course, I had to experiment with the process.
Bare canvas, watered down acrylics, and the element of air.
[part of my ongoing elemental woman series]
I wish I could have met her.....
