Title
Time Out for de kooning in a Chair in a Corner
Artist
Betty Pieper
Medium
Painting - Acrylic On Canvas Board
Description
In preparing this small canvas some of the lines reminded me of a child's stick figure...and I thought "What kind of figure would dekooning have done as a little boy?" And having put it on a wall, "What would his mother have done?" This was a fun painting with some serious commentary on creativity, how art is interpreted, our primary influences as artists, punishments for kids and other heavy thoughts.

Thanks. I was pleased a couple of years ago when it got into a juried national show and the juror was from Holland so he had a sense of humor, too.

Betty, This is a superb little painting.I love the smart art humor. So glad I found your work on FAA!
Betty Pieper replied:
Thank you, Cecily. Yes with a half million artists on FAA it is a wonder we find each other or that anyone finds us. This was just fun to imagine and to paint. I visited your site and found Feeding the Pigeons one of the best works I've seen.

Thanks for the feature! From my vision for this work I've started to appreciate de kooning much more and didn't realize that like Picasso - and so many of us who later chose abstracting - he was a fine draftsman early on.

Thanks so much. I can just hear the kids saying, "But Mom, maybe someday I'll be famous. You shouldn't squelch my creativity."
