W is for words...

Do we need to create a language to be abstract?  I think not. I believe an artists language evolves as the artist evolves and every stroke, color, and texture extruded speaks a truth that is individual to the artist.  I feel as if every painting is a bridge to the next painting. There is no time to reason when working. The term abstract is abstract to me in the sense that everything is abstract beyond the objective. 

Art is subjective and subject to the analytical. It can be felt and experienced during the creative process as well as during the viewing process. I prefer to feel my way through the process and then analyze afterward--like most. It is difficult to analyze ones work.  My teachers told me to leave that part to the people who do that best--curators and writers. 

We know that symbols or pictures came before words and words can look like symbols, but our conscious mind likes to direct traffic and categorize the words into pictures and pictures in the words. Its a looping process kind of like Fibonacci's spiral. Language and art is a looping process for this artist. One feeds the other. As a trained visual communicator it was important to decipher the process--deconstruct in order to teach. In other words which came first--the picture or the word.
