Being an artist, to me, is the freedom to chase after an idea, a feeling, and too try and create that emotional path pictorially. Having created my Quantum Mechanics (QM) pieces and the fun I had doing that, the creative outgrowth from that short series (will be continued) is represented by the above image (landscape with setting sun). The image can be described as abstract expressionism, but I would like to define this new series as "found and visually manipulated everyday inanimate objects that I have existentially altered to fit my view" What a mouthful! In this new quest my imagination pushes and pulls the inanimate object (used in the image above, a door hinge) filling in the spaces and places to create a surreal landscape. One way to describe my process that readers could possibly attach their own experience and imagination too is the viewing of clouds. When looking at clouds move across the sky forming shapes they can remind you of an animal, face, anything that crosses your mind at that moment. Imagination!!!! That is the key. Such is art and the poetry it can divine!!!!
Reflect the positive in life. The imagination and the wonder of it all. Life is the journey and choices are the footsteps. I like to step lightly and embrace the possibilities that occur each day, each hour, each minute. Kindness is my guide and humor my staff...........johntaskerart@gmail.com
