Exploration

I started this painting with the idea of capturing a sketch I did earlier.  When I sketch I use ink pens, rarely pencils.  I find that sketching is almost like going into a trance for me.  I'm sure if I was hooked up to some kind of monitoring device, it would show that as I sketch, my breathing slows down, my heart rate, blood pressure decrease and probably my shoulders are a greater distance from my ears.  So my idea was to have a lot of the line work that was part of my sketch really show prominently in the painting.  I wasn't sure how to accomplish this, but decided just to start and see where it would take me.  Sometimes it can be quite daunting to take a large canvas and just start sketching on it with ink..... but I just went for it.  

The result, is this painting called "Freedom".  I chose this name because I really felt free to just explore with this one.... to start, and see where it led me.  That is a wonderful freedom..... just seeing where a painting leads you.  
I'm thrilled with this one, and may just keep it for myself.

An exploration and theme is filed for the quantum for the shades. The tip of the game for the formation for the goals. The nature is filed for the proof and reading in the ambit for the sufficient tip for the argument for the groups.
