I’d Rather Work on Slumpu 2025. Acrylic on paper, 22 x 30"
Instead of titling work “untitled”, I often just give the painting a stream of consciousness name, like the one above. Slumpu is my art money that I’ve been printing/painting for about 6 months. Last week, during the afternoon, I would work on slumpu Cyrillic letter series H (1-100). Still, in the morning hours I knew I must paint to keep the hands moving and the brain thinking “painting”, so I practiced my painting routine anyway, even if I preferred to be working on slumpu. Hence, the strange title for an “abstract” painting that looks a lot like a human head:)
