Sept from C - Ann Miller's gallery

 


This is from a newer exchanger, C Canfield. She lives in Santa Fe and I just read an article about how even more artists are moving to Santa Fe. For as long as I can remember, it was a hot spot for artists. If it gets too saturated with artists maybe they will have to pick a new place. I wonder where it will be. They seem to like nice weather.

This will conclude my links to Ann Miller. I hope this link takes you to the page with her gallery - where you will find 14 sub categories. She does a ton of stuff. Everything from silk scarves to books to murals. It's hard to choose which example to post....


I chose this one because it's in a category called *Letterfield paintings.* In the world of abstract expressionist painting (mid 1900s) there was a category called color-field - which were the big paintings that were just huge fields of color - no subject matter. Controversial - but, I liked them. I like that she came up with the term letter-field. 

I was having a conversation with Janet about her needing a painting for a specific place in her home. I suggested that she just make one - since she is very talented. I didn't have anything in mind - until I saw this. Now I am going to send it to her. I'm writing this a month before it appears. I hope by the time it pops up that Janet will have sent me a photo of her painting - inspired by this one - or maybe she will do something entirely different.
