(unavailable)
This is a phrase most of us use or hear on a daily basis. It took on an entirely different meaning when my friend, Cindy Tanner, replied in an e-mail that she was fine with my reply..."no problem"....unless I used those words separately. The quote was born and here it is.
In past days I've gone on and on about integrating the lettering in a piece so that the division of space whether it is realistic or abstract can be seen across the room. Today it's all about the lettering. Some of it is embedded in the piece with stamped words, but the main two letters are prominent and can be read from across the room. There are some quotes that might be better with all of the focus on abstract shapes of color with no realism whatsoever. This is one of those quotes, but there's no reason to simply slap the quote in the center of the page. By thinking and planning shapes, this simple quote became a painting with lots of designed interest. Note that the choice to write the quote in white Neuland was to stitch the two areas of white together and create more shapes. Just something to think about.
