Missive (Hill)



 This work is named Missive, it is an envelope from theater arts in New York to Miss Myna Hughes in San Francisco. At the picture, we can see that artist use gouache to paint some patterns. On the left, it is a white pattern, looks like a white flower. On the right it is a brown patter, I think it may be abstract style pattern. It is very different between the two patterns, and they are on an envelope used for art. So I think it means the different kinds of art need communication. We can see 4 blue points on the envelope, it may mean to be continued. So for the whole works, it expresses that art needs communication not only old time but also nowadays, and art will be better and better in the future.
  It gave me strong impression, I thought art might be expensive and it is very hard for normal people before this visit. But from this work, I know that everything around us can be a great work. If we have acute eyes, everyone can be artist. We can use very simple things and add some paintings, it could be a good art work. Art is not far from us, it is always in our lives waiting for us to discover.
(Sorry for the unclear picture...)
