EXPLANATION OF THE PIECE:

there are times when i have a no idea what art piece i want to create. a sort of "writer's block" of the paint brushes!!!
when this happens to me i just make "anything".....telling myself it does not have to be "great art" ..just do something to get my creative juices flowing (so to speak).
i was experiencing one of those "dreaded" blocks and this is what i made to deal with it.
when this happens i am sometimes pleased with what i have created..and sometimes i just laugh at myself and put it away.
i thought i would share with you all the art piece that resulted from my most recent "bump in the road"!!!

EXHIBITED AT:

art space gallery
750 center street
herndon, va.
16 february-11 march, 2012

COMMENTS MADE:

I really enjoy your work !!! I too experience like a halt. before proceeding into somewhere I have no idea where.... but jumping in or tiptoeing in as the case may be , over here, is so fun and gets you moving again... really like this piece !!!!!! makes me smile !!!!

Jennifer, you have created a truly unique work in this piece. Boxes offer so much room for the imagination to run free. I love how so many elements are white allowing the bits of color to stand out. Plenty to see and interpret in many ways. A fabulous creation :-)

You have creative genius!!

Bellissima, Jennifer
