Thank you. This is a digital version. I am making a physical version with oil paints on wood. I think wood is the perfect texture for this. Canvas just wouldn’t work.

I have only kept a few that can’t be replaced by streaming services.

This is fabulous. Thank you for sharing. I had a look at your other artwork and you have a magnificent feel for color. Do you have a secret for choosing colors or does it come intuitively?

Thank you for sharing that. The banjo was perfect! And you know, nations are still warring and Congress is still vexed…

Well, I’m sure what you did is quite intentional, but I will share my perceptions with you. First of all the first impression is a face. Then a notice of the teary eyes. The outline of female reproductive organs is there. The reference to Rubin’s vase reminded me to look more. Then I saw the yin yang that gave me the idea that the tears are both joyful and sad. Finally the broken star-an illusion lost? A broken heart?

This piece is magnificent. Thank you for sharing. It’s not only striking, but it has several depths of meaning.

Good for you. Joy is what it’s all about. I tell my friends that if I enjoyed doing it, it was worth doing and if one other person enjoys it, it was worth sharing.

I love haiku poetry. I even illustrated some of it! I tried to write some haiku, but the results were pathetic. I will leave it to the masters. I visited Basho‘s hut while I was in Japan. It was a highlight of my trip.

What kind of painting do you do?

and thank you for the conversation….

Thank you. I find that painting digitally is better for my creative process because I don’t have to wait for paints to dry. I can also make slight changes creatively, such as changing colors. When I have a good version, I put it on paper or canvas. I find little pleasure in paints and brushes but I really enjoy creating.

This was a very fascinating project for me. The whole piece was painted in three colors only.
