Painting From "The Zone" Book - Seventeen & Eighteen


"Seventeen"
24"x30" Mixed media on canvas

"Everything that is new or uncommon raises a pleasure in the imagination because it fills the soul with an agreeable surprise, gratifies its curiosity, and gives it an idea of which it was not before possessed."
-Joseph Addison



"Eighteen"
24"x30" Mixed media on canvas

"Rest not! Life is sweeping by; go and dare before you die. Something mighty and sublime, leave behind to conquer time."
-Goethe

In the past I mentioned it would be very difficult for me to choose one style to paint in out the the four styles I work in. I ask myself this periodically. If it really came down to it though, I think I would choose painting from 'The Zone.' There is a certain sense of freedom that accompanies painting this way. It's easy to set up and begin painting. I squeeze my paints into an ice cube tray, fill a jar with water, and just begin to paint as the spirit moves me. I also consider these paintings more 'original.' Anyone can do it. There's no training involved. Pure spontaneity...and they continue to intrigue me when I view them. So there it is...painting from 'The Zone' wins...at least today...
