Kirk Hopper Fine Art presents Janet Chaffee and Benito Huerta: "She Said, He Said" opening reception
By: Randy Baguinon
Janet Chaffee's work is an intuitive and playful exploration of composition, color, and abstraction combined with elements of nature. The initial drawings for this work are derived from found rock formations along the border of California and Mexico as well as, from the Continental Divide of the Rocky Mountains. Chaffee also draws from found lace work. The lace becomes a screen in each painting. Allowing the viewer to stay on the surface or pass through to discover layers beneath.
