Jackie Reeves
July 2012
My work is rooted in my day to day experiences as a mother and artist raising three adolescent daughters. I’m interested in times of transition when things are moving from one stage of development to the next (in life and in the making of art).
I use materials and processes that show evidence of chance and spontaneity. Whether it’s spills of paint on canvas, pooling watercolor on mylar or ink bleeding into rice paper, the unpredictable outcome becomes the playground where I bring abstract and figurative elements together to co-mingling in a space.
