I like this one: I used to think text was distracting in art...but tides have turned completely. It's especially fascinating to see it as partial information...as design and shape rather than word. Beautiful use of the white--paint? Amorphous! Have you ever used transfer type? Really fun stuff. I think it's relegated to the status of 'antique' craft supplies, at this point.
Thanks !! Yeh! I have used the tranfer type before, but many years ago. Graphic designers used it a lot before computers. I love using type as a design element. It breaks things up a bit.
