Jan Schnurr, mixed media
“I have returned to a childlike expressive manor of art. In my new series titled, “Jubilee”, is very free-spirited, playful, care free method of creating, exploring the use of cut paper with patterns and colors in what is called, collage painting. I use all kinds of various found papers: tissue, prints, newsprint, wallpaper, magazines and maps to cut up then paint; not knowing how a piece will turn out! I love how Henri Matisse drew with his scissors to create his Paper Cut-Out series.
My work celebrates the imperfect, impermanent and incomplete.”
