The new year will bring a new batch of paintings. This group will concern a period of time stretching from October ’05 to June ’06. All of them will be based on experiences since my return to the New Orleans area.
The pieces will again feature abstract patterns of dots. All I have to do is work out the dots. The backgrounds are finished.
So what about this past year?
I guess I’ll have to chalk this one up to “process” and “progress.” Although I have not taken any specific direction, there are hints of evolution along the way. With each new work I’ve completed, I have brought a new solution to a certain format. I have exerted more control over the colors I’ve used. Some works have surprised me and excited me.
Sometimes, it is best just to dive in . .
