Meaning behind the art: I honestly wasn’t going to make a Tack Down Tuesday piece, I was thinking I deserved a break. But then I couldn’t help myself, a creature of habit and found myself up in the studio spreading and rolling some acrylic paint on the surface after I did graphite gestural and scribble mark. I found a piece of paper I created from a magazine during a workshop demo and I have been hesitant to use it. But I scanned the magazine paper and now I can print a page any time I want as it’s saved in my files. A bit darker than the original. The composition on this piece is a cruciform which I greatly emphasized. Love the repetitive lines and patterns. I looked over the piece of book page I had for a few word that were grouped together and I kept coming back to these, “They pushed by” and then I put a quarter ringlet instead of a full one. A particle Healing Circle…it’s with resilience and they-people in general pushing through and by.
