After visiting the web site 20x200.com and browsing through all the artwork I chose this piece by Jennifer Sanchez. It is titled ny.09#19. I would buy the 16"x20" edition at $200. I was first attracted to this piece because of the colors and intricate designs. It reminded me of random little doodles that I like to draw for fun. I like how its a collage that is all mixed together. It looks messy but it works. The longer you look at it the more you'll discover. I also like the fact that there are drips and splotches that don't seem planned. Sanchez has stated that her work is an experiment and that she goes into it having a broad idea of what she wants to create but she never can guess what will happen. To me this is a metaphor to life. You may have a plan but it does not necessarily play out the way you had hoped. I think the artist embraces this fact and accepts that life and art isn't always geometrically perfect.
