Whale Map

Primary colors are always a good thing.
Sadly this one doesn't exist in the real world anymore... sometimes I get carried away reinventing paintings, this one is now hidden under many other layers, but remains unresolved.
Have you studied the pop-art period? They also really love repetition. I love your colors!
Yes, i think I am influenced by Pop Art, especially Warhol. But also my recurring icons are like a language, like my little figures are hieroglyphs symbolizing more complex human experience...
That's awesome! You should look at artist Jen Pepper, she is actually one of my professors but is a professional artist as well, she does a lot of work with language.
Thanks, I'll look her up, great name !
Ditto to my other comment. Do you use stamps? I see come repetition. Block print?
Yes, I love repetition... not sure why... it's like the repeating images represent a language (hyroglyph)... they are lino-cut prints
I loved printmaking when I was in school! Ha ha ha oh yeah, I'm a bad speller "come" should be "some" as I'm sure you realized. :)
I didn't even notice the mistake... I often forget to check what I've written before posting :) Thanks for the stars and comments; you may like my photo folders, I have 2 called 'experiemental photography"and "New xperimental photo..." I'd love any feedback you might have.
Great colors and textures! I love it!
Thanks :)

Uuh! I like this a lot, Frederique! Love the fish, the texture, the mixture of colors!
Thanks Judith. I think this was the piece that led to my using maps in my work

This painting doesn't exist anymore, sadly. I didn't like it at the time and painted over it. Now I regret it. Happy Halloween to you too 8-)

Thanks so much :) Unfortunately I painted over this canvas, so the digital version is the only survivor.
