People have often asked where the inspiration for blue moon came from. Here’s a hyper close view of the painting I drew inspiration from. If you can pull in close to my piece and you’ll see what I mean
Over the years I’ve drawn inspiration from so many sources, people,artist, music,lovers,silence and of coarse emotions and nature.
It’s hard to say who or what has influenced me more
Juan Miro or Picasso.? Certainly Dali and Ernst surrealism have inspired my style
Picasso esc themes can be seen through out many of my pieces, even hints of DeKooning and Jasper Johns, Pollock and Franz Kline
Then one day I think I came into my own:
It’s been an honor and privilege over the past year plus to be able to share my heart and soul with so many of you. Thank you for being on this journey with me, I couldn’t do it without you.

I’ve not seen the third one up from the bottom ’til now, fascinating shapes, light and texture…for me, and I may be way off the mark here, but for me, I feel the presence of a crown in the background, each holding an instrument and playing at the same time, then in the foreground I can feel a bird with it’s wings spread wide, protecting the peaceful calm and softer light.. there’s a sense of tolerating the crowd… more dissanance brought to harmony, I love it

I think it’s a nice touch over there… so if some party who was interested in a quick sampling of your work were to read your statement – they just may be titillated enough to explore your blog/work further! ~

I just bought a frame for your challenge piece today, sorry it’s taken so long. I’ve not been as well as I would have liked these past few weeks.

So many of us struggle to find ourselves and never really succeed. You seem to have done that through your art,which is an amazing thing.
