ARTIST of the DAY: S.L. Baker

another LANGUAGE

Process can be such an immersive experience.  My own work is focused, often figurative with meaning in the minutia.  I get lost in my own process, but I envy the abstracted expression of painters like S.L. Baker, today’s Artist of the DayThe inclusion of the ensō below perfectly captures the heart of this work and why I love it. (continues below)

“The work that appears on my canvases is a confluence of social, spiritual and familial concern.  Working mostly in acrylic and using my hands instead of brushes, a moment, an injustice, a joy becomes a color, a texture, a line, another language. I do not know the exact meaning other than I find gratitude within the process and believe that it says something.” — S.L. Baker
