Another image of Walk Tall, with different colors and composition.  

When I make art I am in the zone.  Color fascinates me.  Different combinations of colors contribute to the mood of the piece.  I favor sinuous lines and also use geometrix squares and zig zags. Harlequin patterns. Mandalas. 

Lately, I have done a few portraits of imaginary women.  A variety of styles appear.  I start with a rough in of the features.  Sometimes, that is all I do, the face is cartoonish.  Other times, the face evolves to abstract geometrix.  I think that the most frequent style that i use for faces is painterly realistic.  I keep working until I get an expression that I like.   

While I make decisions and create lines, shapes and color, I am in the zone.  Totally involved in a process that I enjoy.  I follow my muse, she is always showing me something new.  Making art, for over 50 years, has evolved my spirit.  

Art is the way to communicate visually.  You are invited to explore this path with me.
