Abstracts of Interest

Many people have become excited about my abstract and contemporary pieces, more excited than I ever expected. Perhaps that says more about how we as humans naturally respond to visual stimuli and get out of something whatever they put into it. Or maybe it’s as simple as enjoying how they respond to a piece. This can make naming a piece a bit of a dilemma. Should the artists name the piece exactly as he or she feels it should be named thus risking influencing how the viewer responds or should the title be vague giving the viewer more responsibility in the experience? Having said all that I am posting some of these pieces.

Affordable Originals Show

The first annual show put on by the Evangeline Artists' Cooperative, called Affordable Originals (works at $100 or less) with over 20 artists, was at Grand Pre National Historic Site, Nova Scotia, Nov. 22-23, 39-30, Dec. 6-7, 2008. It was considered a success.

Due to my with the artists' cooperative's show and sale I contributed little to my blog.
