PICK OF THIS WEEK - 2018

Week #25
This work was done by Gail Robichaud in Boston in 2017 for the session “Variations on Romans ” in 26 Seeds: a Year to Grow. In her own words:
The three pieces featured here are all the same Miles Davis quote. As the words imply, the work is the result of playing.

The first version is done in sumi ink with an eye dropper used for the letters. My intent is for the words to be illegible and for the piece to make you ask the question —What is it? The gray is a mix of sumi and water and the red highlights are done in acrylic.
The next piece has a wash of walnut ink. The rectangles, squares and circles are done in watercolor. There is a softness about the colors and where they have mixed they have the appearance of sea glass. The lettering is done in sumi and the small gold circles are gilded in 14K gold.

The last piece is done entirely in sumi ink. The intent is for the design to flow and for the words to have a dance-like quality.
