"Reader/Perpetual Motion No. 4"

  oil on canvas 

This is from an ongoing series that started with a drawing from one of the numerous drawing sessions I have had over the past few years. The model engaged with reading is light years away. More and more the subject of these paintings has been about the simple fact that where the model is at becomes a temple, a safe spot lost in time among many others.

I see slowly articulating (by writing) about the focus of my meditations as a way to organize what I want to emphasis in my work. To sharpen the focus, but not necessarily the understanding.
