Megan M. Garwood interviews painter Jacob Ouillette about the work in his recent exhibition Brushstroke Paintings at Nancy Margolis Gallery.
Ouillette remarks: "Each brushstroke is applied in one single motion, one pass, from left to right with no revisions allowed, or necessary, like the mark of a calligraphers brush. The paintings are created almost as a live performance, one stroke, or note at a time, until the composition is complete, the song ends when the last note is played. Unlike live music though, the painting holds that 'live'moment frozen indefinitely."
