Description
Painting is a solitary, thoughtful process. I like to sit and ponder the existing and future strokes everyday whether I have a brush and palette in my hand or not. Sometimes the strokes just feel right as they are going on the canvas. Hopefully one feels the wrong strokes before they get even applied. The poem by Marko Burrows describes the process of painting and life very well. Here are just a few of those words.
"The paint on my brush keeps on flowing
In small dabs and long strokes it feels right
Blending, colour and texture, that’s going
To reflect, almost dance, in the light
But up close, you can’t see any structure
It’s a jumble of chaos and strife
But step back and look at its wholeness
A painting is a lot like life"
A couple of Boston really enjoyed #2065 "Summer Cirrus" which is 22 X 26 (inches) and based on a photo taken from my kayak at 8:45 pm on Friday July 28th, 2017 Singleton Lake. The gravity waves and lines of cirrus are what attracted me to this painting. I rarely do commissions but I felt this could be a fun adventure using one of my favourite paintings as a launching board. They wanted a canvas almost 4x6 feet in size. That large size adds an entirely different dimension to the project but life should be an adventure and a challenge as well as being fun.

You have made my day Sunny. Thank you. The oils, canvas and support are simple materials but sometimes they come together into something larger than the parts. This 4 by 6 footer is going to patrons in Boston and I hope they will feel like you do when they recieve the original. Thank you so very much.
