I’m finding so much to inspire and aspire to in the work of other artists lately, especially in the way abstract artists approach composition and color. How some artists choose to include graphic or narrative elements eluding to a certain subject or influence, while others, like Emily Crabtree, simply let color and form do the talking.
I love the way her work twirls and drips in cottony bundles of color. In these paper pieces, the forms isolated against a clean white background, almost seem to pulsate and dare to flit about the surface. Peeking in from this side or that, the cropped compositions feel like a fleeting glimpse of clouds of color floating in and out of view.
