One of the luxuries of being able to work on my art every day, is that I can let a painting simmer, until I’m ready to get back to it. This landscape
has been bugging me, just one little part. I hung it in our living room, and I knew I would have to do more work. Now I’m not afraid of “destroying” a painting. I hear deKooning say “kill it, and bring it back to life.” To me it’s like kids and dogs, you can’t let them or YOUR painting win.
River
I started this painting last year w/ some misguided idea that I could sell something that I wasn’t invested in. Gregg nailed me and I’m glad. This is starting to be MY river.
Several
I work on several paintings at once. Some need to dry and some need time to percolate in my mind. “Vision” has monofilament running thru it. The socket is not part of the art! River is part of the spirals.

I’m stuck on spirals. Besides DNA, they describe paths, like a rivers.
