The Daily Spectrum - Going Deep

Appearances are not always what they seem. The well dressed man and/or woman may be extremely shy and insecure. They may come across instead as being standoffish or snobby. The truth of their personality is like a great piece of art. Until you take the time to interact with it - you will get nothing out of it.

The ocean is similar to that to the casual observer or beach goer. On the surface, the wind blows and helps creates waves. It is not until turns into a swimmer and enters the water, that the ocean has an affect on him or her. They get bounced around and bowled over - or they lift their feet and float over each wave. The braver souls dive under the water and experience a peaceful swim. They've become one with the water and trust themselves to the power surrounding them.

Abstract art is actually very self-confident, friendly, and welcoming. It has a special communication for each viewer who takes the time to get to know the piece within their soul. Abstract art connects all of human history via ancient symbolism.

My process is a freeing of all rules and preconceived notions. It is a following of my intuition; Going with the flow. The colors evoke emotions. Shapes may remind someone of an animal or object. The abstract may tell a whale story once the viewer has relaxed with it.

The artist did what they were born to do: create connections.

Until next time,
The happy painter,
