From the artist’s “Texting While Painting” series, this work features intense color, a variety of mark-making and collage elements interwoven with the paint & mediums. The scraps of collage are junk mail “come-on’s” and marketing messages that pervade our culture.

Janet Bothne’s vibrant works are a result of many layers of paint, and a process she calls her “pendulum” — a back and forth between gut & brain, between chaos & organization.
