Yes, I love abstract art, and happen to live next door to an artist with similar talents. I have three of his pieces hanging in my house and hope to acquire more. This piece of yours looks like time bubbles to me.

I think "A Stitch in Time" works better, for reasons you've mentioned.<BR/>I like all different kinds of art, but one of my faves is John William Waterhouse.

This is exactly what abstract art should do: evoke different reactions in different people and maybe even strike a deeper chord. I know what you mean by views of the earth from heights where the colors and contours of the land all merge into a gigantic, undulating field of endless, breathing, beautiful life forms.<BR/><BR/>Since my love for nature is what keeps me happy and grounded, no matter how abstract I get, I feel that nature is always "in there," at the center of my passion.<BR/><BR/>Happy New Year, Robin. I'll be over to visit, my eloquent friend....<BR/><BR/>xxxLynda Lehmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10914824862008453219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2090919024696057090.post-28187539884436748902009-01-10T10:13:00.000-07:002009-01-10T10:13:00.000-07:00I love all kinds of paintings.

What is interesting to me is that even though it has all the movement, for me, it is VERY grounding. I actually felt anchored to Earth in a most wonderful way. Like when I climb a high mt. trail here in summer and there is this little glen that is full of patches of red-brown earth, green grass, purple lupine and poderosa pines with their brown trunks and deep green branches and then overhead are wisps of clouds and blue sky. I immediately thought of that glen when I saw this. I know that may sound odd but it's what came to mind. And somehow the large purple/blue circles reminded me of Earth's roundness. You're probably laughing right now... :) :) Anyway, I find it a dramatic and powerful painting. And your images in the previous post are just out of this world. Again: You are elegance personified. Just beautiful...everything you touch and do turns to grace and beauty.

I love the ambiguity of abstract because it leaves interpretation open too the mind of the viewer, and it leaves room for multiple ideas and perspectives, maybe even within the same viewer. To me it conveys more excitement than a literal, realistic subject.<BR/><BR/>Thank you for stopping by.
