Artistic Process ##Shoosty
My latest gallery pieces are printed on luxurious silk, a fabric with a rich history dating back to Neo - lithic China around 3,500 BC according to archae - ological evidence. To achieve the vibrant colors and intricate details in my work, I rely on the Apple iPad Pro with the Apple Pencil and a state-of-the-art duplex fabric printers. This innovative technology allows me to print the same image with a subtle color shift on the reverse side, cre - ating a sense of wonderment. ##Copilot Thank you for sharing, Stephen. Your diverse back - ground and the range of mediums you work with are genuinely fascinating. Your work on Shoosty Bugs sounds particularly intriguing, especially with its con - nection to art history and its various applications, from gallery showings to fabric design.
I spend my days and nights thinking and dream - ing about making things. When I wake up, I do my morning routine, topped off with a tall glass of brisk, iced tea. Then, I aim for the flow state. I do this by writing. Everyone’s heads are jumbled. You may know your thoughts, but try writing them. You will quickly see there is more to it than the fleeting thought. Writing clears the cobwebs and sets the tone. Writing leads toward poetry and music. Con - stant writing sharpens your ability to communicate. Writing is thinking on paper. Writing preserves well- formed memories. I write for at least two hours every morning. Fre - quently, I’ll spend the whole day writing, building a layout, and refining it until each page is a work of art. As of this writing, I have published over 20 books.
Let’s move on to the next part of your artist statement.
