This original abstract painting is full of expressive, gestural brushstrokes and happy accidents. The paint collected where it wanted to in the washes of water -- I couldn't have planned this painting even if I tried. Everything about it was experimental and bold. Creating this felt like journeying into uncharted waters.
We should not fear the unknown but instead step boldly into it. This painting reminds you that you are the navigator of your own life, the architect of it, the designer of it. We create our own realities, moment by moment, as vibrant as we want them to be.
Here's the accompanying poem:
"forever will they attempt
to put you into a box
to make you fit neatly
into their mind’s conception
of order.
but you?
you are not scheduled!
nor governed by arbitrary rules!
your nature is like that of
the tides, the moon, the wind!
so embrace it!
revel in it!"
This painting has been shown at a gallery in San Francisco, CA in 2023-2024.
