Sandra Brownlee making her mark while India Flint and Kelly McKaig look on
Sandra taught me that
as well as in the paper that I worked with yesterday.
The thought of each piece of paper containing a cloud seems to fit perfectly
with the thought that there is a crack in everything that's how the light gets in.
So here's to clouds, cracks, light and red boats.
New art math...thoughtful presence + photo inspiration + making connections = beautiful story
ReplyDeleteSo...whenever I have a solo exhibition, will you write the statement for me?
DeleteBeautiful.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks Valerianna.
Deleteoooo yairs! (to all)
ReplyDeleteYairs? Is that a Oz word? Not familiar with it, but have a feeling that it is good. Thanks Ronnie!
Deleteok, just wonderful. would like to hold this one--
ReplyDeleteThe thought that you'd like to hold this one, which is still in progress by the way, brings a huge smile.
DeleteSolid words.
ReplyDeleteYes. Good words. Good memories. Good thoughts and ideas.
DeleteI remember the feeling I had looking at the photo of the red boat that you first posted from Newburgh. And then to find myself standing on at the river's edge, looking at the boat...so small and simple yet such a powerful symbol...it was surreal and incredible. And continues to be.
ReplyDeleteOh. Wow. Not very coherent but I can feel the wonder and the power of the work you are doing based on the wonder and the power of the time away…so many wonderful thoughts and inspirations - I love the notion of the clouds and the cracks…precious. You could explore that for a very long time...
ReplyDeleteI have a feeling that I'll be exploring this for quite a while. Clouds, cracks, light, red boats, paper, paint, stitch, boro, wabi sabi...it all just fits.
DeleteSo mad I have to leave for a vet appointment, I want to try painting with a stick and string! nice post!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jill! Be interested in seeing how your stick painting comes out. Enjoy!
DeleteClouds cracking with envy here! This is really very beautiful, your words and your work alike. I am looking forward to more...
ReplyDeleteToo funny Ersi! I read your first line as "cloud cracking envy" at first. Either way, it brought a smile. I knew the week in Newburgh would effect my work, but thought it would take a bit before it did. It feel very good to be doing this work and the ideas are flying. Enjoy!
