EIGHT ABSTRACT WATER COLORS (Attached)

“I FELT, AS WITH THE BLACK AND WHITE LINE DRAWINGS, WHAT WAS HAPPENING, AND PUT THOSE FEELINGS DOWN WITH WATER COLORS. THEY REMIND ME, NOW, THAT A SENSE OF

WHAT IS HAPPENING CAN BE FELT, AND THAT TRUE ART IS THE EXPRESSION OF THOSE FEELINGS.

IT TOOK ME A LONG TIME TO REALLY UNDERSTAND THIS, AS I PAID TOO MUCH ATTENTION

TO THE COMMENTS OF OTHERS RELATIVE TO THESE PIECES. BUT NOW, AFTER THEY'VE REMAINED WITH ME FOR SIX YEARS, AND HAVE NOT VANISHED, THEIR IMPORTANCE TO ME,

AND WITHIN THE SEQUENCE OF ALL MY WORK, BRINGS THE INCLUSION TO THIS, THERE PROPER LOCATION.”

1. SPRING AND A SENSE OF DOOM

2. BEAUTIFUL MAY AND SHE'S GONE

3. DIVISIONS

4. THE ROAD OUT OF HERE

5. FALL'S REFLECTION

6. TWO ARE NOT ONE ANYMORE

7. THE MORE THINGS CHANGE

8. THE MORE THEY STAY THE SAME

“IN THE DOING OF THESE WORKS, THE BEGINNINGS OF ACCEPTANCE WAS DRAWN FROM THE INSIDES OF ME, AND ON TO THEM. A TRANSFER FROM WORDS TO PAINT, AS BOTH A MEANS OF EXPRESSION AND FORM OF HEALING, BEGAN TO CHANGE ME AS A HUMAN.”
