Ann Toebbe

Oh, Ann Toebbe, you are a breath of flattened perspective fresh air this morning. I was all set to give up the ghost on anything good coming out of today when I stumbled across your simple shapes built into beautiful compositions. Not to mention that some of it reminds me of all the houses I’ve tried to grow up in. Your works are like Saul Bass hypercubes, and I really can’t imagine anything more flattering than that. And all your church paintings make me want to actually set foot inside of a church, which I’ve never done before. Or maybe I would have to be on mescaline for it to look like one of your paintings. You paint churches on mescaline? Is that what I’m saying? I guess it is. I would consider that a pretty high compliment anyway.
