Posts tagged ‘saltscapes’

it’s been a heady few days of artists’ exhibitions, previews and soirees.. times to flaunt with the art and flatter the artists, the opportunity to make new connections, and just very occasionally putting one’s foot in it with foolish assumptions and then having to withdraw graciously to the buffet…. places where wine and words flow… talking of nuances of surface, resonance, veils of colour, vibrations, gradations, from visual clarity to the erased and obscured, from outside to inside, of noise and silence, expansiveness and containment… i am all talked out…

textures in painting and haiku poem
[detail; showing textures]…

and a haiku poem…

stepping on stones, skipping
the sedimental slabs, water blackened
striated, to the shore..
.

i have been tempted to edit my experimental haikus, change words, but perhaps they should stay as intended… spontaneous responses, of the moment… just words, caught in the net…

small framed abstract stripes paintings

and lastly, some small paintings on paper, now box framed, for HWAT
