Following Crits...

Last critique was personally most helpful this semester. Megan was able to discuss my work in depth and question its direction in ways I haven't thought of before. She stressed that my style of painting could almost be a thesis project itself instead of having it merge with the conceptual aspects of the paintings as I intended to. Giving it a large amount of thought, which possibly resulted in the lack of posts between last post and this one, I have decided to paint in a more subtle way, so that the viewer can identify with what is being depicted more than how it  is depicted. Even though there still is a sensibility of expression as in my other work, one can mainly sense the focus being on the figure ground relationships which I am trying to complicate. It isn't an easy task, however, hopefully an achievable one by mid-april.
