This is my second journey into Markmaking. I had just graduated from college and was challenged by my mentor with a simple question, "What's next?” I wasn't sure. I loved how the first Markmaking series turned out and wanted to see if I could do something similar in Phoenix. I lived there for seven years and discovered many interesting spaces filled with lines and marks. Part of my job allowed me to see every part of Metro Phoenix. The sun and the heat became my subject.
What resulted from my experiment was this series. This time around, I tried even harder to connect the internal lines through juxtaposition. I also wanted to address the negative space around the composites. White space is necessary. It is a resting place. It is brightness and life. It holds weight and balances the compositions. It is like the sun.
