I find it very exciting to examine how reality can be described, especially in paint. Unlike music that is transitory. Like reality itself. But a painter, one has to rest there and feel the results of that perception. Live with it. For me, i always destroyed something I had painted if I could not continue to justify it in some way as still being true. I love the painting of the row of the similar looking building. while writing this, can’t access the title of that painting. This painter is new to me. As a child my first favorite painter was Mondrian. Then for power Motherwell. Each one reflected my life experience. I love this experience here of dissolving on closer examination. That is my life experience. It’s taken a long time to even begin to become comfortable with that. Find tho, that communicating; words that pass, thoughts…it all goes…but I so appreciative of the lived life as an artist, who allows a seriousness attention to become the constant in this impermanence. So glad I discovered this. Thank you for the post.
Excellent questions and answers. I understand his sense of tonality in his work. While living in Zeeland in my twenties, I spent much time in Belgium.
Very interesting conversation
