At some level, we ...Everybody influences everybody! At some level, we are all the same artist, so not to worry. If you add minimalism to your work, it will be in Mary fashion, with your voice. Several months ago you showed us a picture of a gray, white and rust or yellow piece you did. It was hanging on your dining room wall. My gosh but I loved that. I still think about that piece. Great division of space, and use of organic edges. I could have envy.....well, okay I do. Just love that piece.Leslie Avon Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09235003342775117469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3117121614623197321.post-80368600870274882272008-12-12T08:18:00.000-06:002008-12-12T08:18:00.000-06:00Oh, my goodness, Leslie. . . thank you for comment...Oh, my goodness, Leslie. . . thank you for commenting. If you hadn't, I would have never found your blog. Your art is amazing. . . exactly what I wish my collages could become. So inspiring that I'm afraid to visit because what if I copy yours? I love the colors, the textures, everything. The black and white ones. . . superb. Please come by again, and be assured that you will influence my future work. Please take it as a compliment.Mary Buekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11297930606582925072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3117121614623197321.post-31989357166596438752008-12-11T08:39:00.000-06:002008-12-11T08:39:00.000-06:00I think we all have our own inner driven aesthetic...I think we all have our own inner driven aesthetic. It’s our voice. It’s who we are. It’s what we have been given. I am a minimalist myself, and try as I might to get wild and really add a lot to a piece, I just don’t. When there is too much going on I get out the sander and sand it back down, or I rip it up, or paint over the top, or something.Leslie Avon Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09235003342775117469noreply@blogger.com
