doesnt this look a lot like nozkowski plus root? havent seen it in person. does the work offer different pleasures in real life?

hard to say... looks too much like nozkowski and elizabeth murray but then again possible something likeable about it... where can one see this in person?

this kind of painting makes me want to smack someone. little design experiments. just enough awkwardness, no real investigation - just push a line a little this way or shift the color a little over here. castrated and tedious. i hate those crooked lines reaching for the edges like pathetic streets on a map of suburbia. nozkowski needs to get laid, and this chick needs to grow some balls.

I love this image and I love her paintings. They are fresh, awkward and full of exuberance and calm at the same time. I don't mind the Nozkowski reference, she has enough of her own stuff going on in these.

"Although they aree abstract, Natasha Sweeten's fetchingly titled small oils on panal take cues from the real world, Particularly from naturee and architecture. what gives them their kick is her innate gift for using paint to evoke biomorphic and other forms in subtle, nuanced colors, overpainting,scraping and reworking until the forms play blithely off each other in quirkey but coherent compositions." Grace Glueck, NYT 3/3/06
