IN PRAISE OF THE HORIZON

OK...I admit I spend a lot of time in the studio reading, listening to music, and "resting" my eyes, all very important endeavors that allow me to stay fresh and on the cutting edge. Or at least an edge, even if it is a little dull. But I DO make time for painting, and offer as proof this latest piece in the series. With each one the horizon become less and less distinct, so why not get rid of it completely? Because I remain committed to creating a sense of place, and the horizon, however faint it may be, does that. Without it, the canvas becomes a mediocre abstraction.

Patience and I have been invited out to dinner tonight so the next pasta quest post will be tomorrow evening.
