Update from Mimm Patterson

Around this time last year I was submitting my application for this program, not knowing anything about McGuffey Art Center or believing that I had a chance of being selected. And now we’re sliding into the home stretch. This month a couple of my fellow Incubators and I toured the gallery space and developed a feel for how our June exhibit will look. I created a new website for my work (http://mimmpattersonart.org) and in the process felt justified in describing myself as an artist - a bit of a breakthrough for me. I also explored working in a larger format - 18x24 inches. Because I don’t have a large scale printer this forces me to cut images down into ‘tiles’. I’ve discovered this necessity slows the process of creating which in turn increases intentionality and focus.
