Made from Television- 2020 (Art Made DURING Covid 19)
COVID changed all of our lives. This was a time to reinvent the world, yours- mine -ours.
This past few years I have been teaching and scenic painting so much that my own personal art practise has been virtually non-existent. I did not mind so much as my house is full to bursting with work from previous years.But this Pandemic was a door opening for me, to making for the sake of myself and my own spirit. The challenge was “what to paint” . So, like many I took to Netflix and binge watched. While watching I draw what strikes me as interesting. I decided to warm up my paint brush arm with recreating some of my drawings and scribbles into larger format acrylic paintings. This series gave me an opportunity to use the idea from the Television screen as a jumping off point. All of these images came about while watching WestWorld.
