Bi-polar mind (00023)
Obsessive thought of
Christmas and coupons
Body processes and notes
Politics and losing hair
Watches and bits of string
Lost lingerie and sweeping
Cat food and pillows too soft
Strange noises and sets of keys
Bushes and dying banana trees

Symbolic tale (00057)
Circles, squares, triangles in a myriad of forms tell the symbolic tale of intimate encounters with the purpose of existence defined by the ever changing meanings from cultures long forgotten and clothed in mysteries that defy meaning and understanding.

“If we seek genuine psychological understanding of the human being of our own time, we must know his spiritual history absolutely. We cannot reduce him to mere biological data, since he is not by nature merely biological, but is a product also of spiritual presuppositions.” – -Carl Jung from a presentation at the C. G. Jung Institute Zurich, Küsnacht, 15 Nov 1953

"Do you ne'er think what wondrous beings these?
Do you ne'er think who made them, and who taught
The dialect they speak, where melodies
Alone are the interpreters of thought?
Whose household words are songs in many keys,
Sweeter than instrument of man e'er caught!"
- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's 'Tales of a Wayside Inn'

I just don't get it.
Recently,
I have been fielding question about my art from from residents of the
independent living center where I reside. One of the most common
questions relate to where I get my ideas and occasionally someone
will mention that that my work “look like” some known artist.
Those questions are usually veiled attempts to suggest that my work
may not be original. A particularly difficult question or response
is always some form of “ I just don't get it” or I like pictures
of things I recognize.” These ego related questions are the most
annoying. The questions and opinions are not new, I have been asked
the same questions and heard the same opinions from students, family
members and friends for over sixty years.
Originality
is a ghost and one could question philosophically whether originality
really exists. What really matters is our personal approach to art
and the way in which we express our experiences and influences on a
canvas; that is the high point of art and art criticism; anything
else is a moot point and ego driven drivel.
