The dots on the page are 6 by 5 1/8 inches. This small piece was done on found paper, specifically, the inside of the paper cover of a kids’ book likely hated by all children called Great Spelling Tips. The paper is browned with age, and some of the dots bleed into the paper and others are crisp. Marks were made in sets of twenty, but what you’ll notice more are the two shades of blue. Why was there a rupture? Most likely, there was an interruption after the first few inches of dots, and when painting resumed, the ink mixture had dried and become deeper in color. (Clearly I am not a meticulous documenter of my process.)

Andrea Cross is a Brooklyn, NY-based artist who specializes in works on paper. Statement: My mark making works are process oriented, intended to show a repetitive and meditative art making process that will encourage a similar contemplative reaction on the part of the viewer. Materials are simple: heavy paper, ink, watercolor, or a combination of both media. I am not interested in creating careful, identical marks. Instead, as part of the process I recognize that spontaneity gives the squares a visual energy. I view it as “chaotic minimalism,” a natural result of my work methods. As there is a repetition of the marks being painted, so is there a repetition to some of the grids and structures of the pieces. Superficially, the paintings might appear similar, but no two are alike, owing to the variations in color and application of the marks.
