You know, I really like this painting, and I can't say why. I'm mostly a representational art person: I like things to look like things. But I have to admit that I've fallen in love with a (very) few pieces of non-representational art in my life. I do rather wonder what goes through the artist while they do it, if there's a plan, a sketch that gets followed, or if things just... happen. Your Jan. 4th entry explains that a little bit -- thank you.
