Painted Image -- line drawn with words, paint captured by time and imagination. Not just the finished picture but the picture unfolding and the ideas that shape it and the living reality all around it.
I love looking at things, observing ordinary objects, watching colors and shapes: the world as we perceive it has its own raison d'etre. The contours of a potato, the way light changes along a round surface, the shapes and interiors of shadows, the variagations in color -- all these things that you can observe in objects by simply opening your eyes make painting enchanting.
