You know, it’s just, it’s. But your negative space allows it, you know, to fill in.” Darrell Beauchamp “Well, you talk about the passion. I was unfamiliar with both of those artists. But I saw that passion in their work.” – Tom Fox “It’s a beautiful way of looking at, how do you get action and how do you get emotion from a piece of sculpture when it’s not all there? The negative space, especially since he works in a lot of primary colors that works in brighten reds and yellows and blues, and, and it’s, it’s just a step away from all that tradition enough.” – Darrell Beauchamp Resources: Museum of Western Art Darrell Beauchamp on LinkedIn
