I think it is very interesting to see what the inspiration or motivation behind an artist's work was. It is often hard to tell what idea they wanted to get across, but I think that if she was using splatters to portray a feeling of chaos that sounds very effective to me. I can relate to how she likes to have something pulling it all together because I like to do that when I do a piece of work such as an essay or a piece of artwork. It makes it feel complete.
