For years, I’ve marveled at the work of Sofia Arnold. Her naturalistic scenes are wild fantasies featuring a host of characters. Look closely, and you’ll see women in flowing dresses, small animals, and energetic children woven in her compositions.
In an interview with Buy Some Damn Art, Sofia talks about recycling imagery and ideas in her work. It’s a valuable practice that can help your work feel conceptually cohesive. ” A copy of a copy of a copy might become visually unrecognizable from the source, but I think that continued reiteration will eventually distill some kind of meaning for me,” she says.
And here’s a little extra. Sofia sells this awesome small patches in her Big Cartel shop!
