Black Hole Sun Painting

Christy Hopkins//Artist Statement When someone asks me, “what inspires you” my brain usually struggles to answer. It’s not a cloud or a tree. It’s not a picture in a book, or a song I’ve heard. I draw 100% inspiration from the work itself. The sheer physical process. I paint intuitively, I almost never have a roadmap going into a piece. The painting becomes alive in my process and layer making. Then in finding the story and building it out. It’s crucial for me to recognize that exact moment where I know intuitively which way to go, to release control and let the painting guide me. That is when the piece and I become one. I have boundless energy and feelings to express, and painting is my visual language. I have a daily regime with my studio. It’s the place where I free my head, put stress aside and allow the painting to connect with my emotions and capture the artistic voice I’m screaming to get out.
