I am busy spreading holiday cheer today ( OK, actually running around like crazy trying to get stuff done ), which is kind of fitting for the work of today’s featured artist. Sarah Spitler’s abstracts come from the artist’s concern with chaos manifested. And because of aforementioned chaos of my own today, I’m going to let Sarah’s work speak for itself.
Inveterate Detritus ( Something Forgotten Known Only to Ourselves ), ink, acrylic, enamel and spray paint on Mylar and canvas, 36x36
Iniquities Not Consigned to Oblivion, ink, acrylic and enamel on Mylar, 16x16
Vorticital Obsolescence, ink, acrylic and enamel on Mylar, 16x16
Geopolitical Tumescence, ink, acrylic, gold leaf and enamel on Mylar, 10x10
Be sure to check out more of Sarah Spitler’s work on her website and don’t miss reading her artist statement— deep stuff there, definitely read it and then go back and look at her work again.
Featured title image is Monomythical Geopolitika, ink, acrylic, spray paint and graphite on Mylar, 28×22. All images are via the artist’s website.

December 15, 2011 at 11:58 AMMy pleasure, Katie! These make me want to be less intentional when I paint.
Cheers!
