Beverly BAKER - Latitude Artist, USA

American artist (Latitude Artist, Kentucky), Beverly Baker initially works from administrative documents that she pinches from her work place or from pages ripped out of magazines or books. This initial material is then covered with multiple layers of letters, words and lines of color.

Through regular visits to the workshops, Beverly Baker’s creations gradually cut loose from the text, becoming more graphic. The pieces exhibited here demonstrate this. We are confronted with art that is verging on tapestry and contrasts with the simplicity of  the medium. As, regardless of the evolution of her work, Beverly Baker always turns to the same modest instruments: biros, pencils or marker pens.
