I think the Kiefer refernce applies through the raw physical use of material, but there is life in these paintings where there is death and despair in Kiefer. Incidentally, I like both types of work, they just wash over my mind in differnt ways.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30832682.post-51382910200368286772010-10-15T21:57:01.322-04:002010-10-15T21:57:01.322-04:00Hannah, I'm pretty sure Snyder's flowers--...Hannah, I'm pretty sure Snyder's flowers--often actual flowers--were in her paintings before Twombly turned floral.<br /><br />Nancy, I really do like her work even though it's antithetical to my own work. I certainly can relate to her sense of color.<br /><br />Annell, Thanks as always for your kind words.Joanne Matterahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02564594823192456546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30832682.post-78191493016068301132010-10-15T19:46:42.163-04:002010-10-15T19:46:42.163-04:00Thanks for posting this, Joanne.
