With this piece I was just thinking about creating the illusion of line by dividing the individual brushstrokes at certain points by cutting them. It takes twice as much work and I wasn’t really pleased with the result as I think it detracts from what I wanted to originally achieve which was an emphasis on the strokes themselves, rather than any form they may take as a whole. We shall see however, that I have begun to simultaneously pursue two different paths: one in which the brushstrokes are just brushstrokes, and one in which they are part of a representational whole.
