As I was looking through this book on prints and drawings, I turned the page to a drawing that instantly captured my attention. It stuck out so boldly that I couldn't help but stare at it. Its an engraving/etching done in 1943 by Stanley William Hayter titled Tarantelle. I am intrigued with the bold shapes intertwined with the fluidity of the lines and as a lover of abstract and non-objectional art... my next painting will utilize these elements to supply my own "interpretation". I am not sure what medium or subject matter yet, but it is a fact that I am transfixed on this etching. I have been researching this artist for the past hour and I am really falling in love with his work. It amazes me how individual artists express such different interpretations and the venues of such are ENDLESS. . . another reminder why I love art!
