2:56 PM: this morning my first glance let me know that these 2 paintings were unresolved. so i set to work, switching between the two, as i love to do and which helps shift the energy and open new doorways.
collaging was part of the process, allowing me to cover busy areas in one fell swoop and, in the case of july 7 creek, to add the printed, cropped image of part of a flower.
my current feeling is that, after many decades of painting & drawing, i’m just now finding my groove. “realism” and “abstraction” are meaningless when talking about art. muzic and majik are more appropriate, i think.
BELOW: july 7 creek on the left, july 7 creek on the right. the language they speak has been evolving over a long period of time. it needs no translation. prehistoric cave painters would get it as well as generation alpha. the muzik & the majik.
