Balance

October 1987 through February 1988

Part O

ne: Historical Update (85-87),

Obsessions with Vincent VanGogh

and the beginnings of me as a painter.

“For the past two years, my pen has fallen silent

thoughts, absorbed in colors, canvass

knowing a combination would come towards the title I'd found.

Standing within garages

forging at, upon, newer works,

struggling with the meaning of the word Balance.

Away, now far from the thought of Balance

as the stealing of one time from another,

towards the combination of words with paint.

Unification. All that I am.

This book, Balance, is my way forward”.
