LYNNE TAETZSCH

I paint to loud music--classical, rock, jazz, blues, new age--whatever it is that makes me want to open a tube of paint that day. My limbs move to the beat. I stretch, leap, splash--frenzied or at peace, but never settled, never in a comfortable place. I have to keep moving, to spend my time on the boundaries looking over the edge. I don't want to paint anything I've seen before.

My work goes best when I tune out the words in my head and simply engage in the visual experience. I shut off the logical, conscious part of my mind and give myself over to the experience of faith--faith that the work itself will show me what to do next. My current work is about play and ambiguity. I challenge myself to turn random selections into an aesthetic adventure. Each painting takes numerous sessions of quick action painting that is almost accidental, as well as carefully controlled development of color, form and overall design. It is the finely tuned balance between wildness and control that produces the final effect.
