Artist #3: Squeak Carnwath
I really enjoy the work by Squeak. The checkerboard pattern shows up repeatedly throughout her works, giving them a sense of unity to one another. I also love her use of lettering across the canvas in some of her works. I used to do a lot of lettering in my drawings, and seeing that aspect in her paintings is something I admire. Her paintings are all similar in the fact that they use a lot of basic shapes, just interpreted differently. They have a child-like sense to them; simplistic yet informative. The one pictured to the right I really admire for it's straightforward message delivered in a unique manner, with smaller quotes in the back and the bold colors to draw in attention.
