Greg Dickerson's work really jumped out at me. Not only do i love the random swatches of fabric thrown onto the canvas with dramatic smears of paints. But i love the idea behind his work. From what i understand, he uses random memories as a theme ( a child's first blanket,part of a wedding dress,etc) And builds around it. There are so many ways to view his work and so many ideas going on, that is is so visually appealing and enticing. At times it is hard to read, but once you get an understanding of its meaning, you get a entire different view and understanding of it. His art makes you think and has strong meaning. It freezes a point in time and builds a piece around it, making it such a strong and interesting piece to look at.
