Sonja Drummond / Andrew Holmquist
Big Mess
February 13 - March 22, 2009

Drummond and Holmquist share an interest in an imaginative painting process that is rooted in an off-the-beaten-path version of popular culture. Working in a Surrealist-type manner, each artist's method of painting is similar to automatic writing: after applying brushstrokes to the canvas, they step back, read into their markings and embrace what might have subconsciously made its way onto the canvas.
