Time Ball painting by Ann Marta Bowker (1992)
Artist's Statement April 2017: "This is an acrylic painting done on East Indian village paper, a handmade paper unique in that the textures and edges of each piece of watercolor paper reflect the touch of the individual who made it. It is so heavy and rigid that it will stand leaning on a wall.
I work with thin washes of paint - often as many layers as 10-15. This gives the paintings almost a glow as the transparencies don't block out the layers underneath the last addition. Some areas are painted with more opaque colors.
The woman's image was developed from numerous photos I have taken over the years at Pow Wows. This is not a portrait of a specific person. The Time Ball is a memory saving item that is started by a woman on the event of her marriage. A bead or other artifact is added to the twine as special occasions occur during the woman's progress through her life."
