Thanks to Kevin Draper for providing a bunch of bottles of paint, including some glow-in-the-dark paint which I used for two strips of this painting that took me a couple of weeks, one painstaking triangle stripe at a time.

Still excited by the possibilities of being able to mask thick shapes, I tried filling a whole canvas with them. I was torn between competing impulses of making the stripes as neat as possible and creating a splashy, ragged shape for each one. The splashy ragged shape impulse won out, partially because it’s easier but partially because I want to feel like I’m making art and not just a “craft”.

The blue stripes use glow-in-the-dark paint, as depicted in the darkness photo.
