'...too much for the eye of the beholder.' VIVA, do as you feel you must to complete your task - I would never attempt to sway you...Yet I question: If as artists we do not place all on the table, how will someone else ever recognize those things that are merely 'usual' and those that are Wow 'unusual', and uncommonly more than ordinary - Besides how could we ever imagine what is to much for the beholder? Time is burning! Full Steam ahead Admiral! Lock. load and paint! - to your heart's desire!!( and the music ascends...as the crowd goes wild to the jubilant climax of the symphony...and tune in next week for another exhilarating, visual VIVA original!

VIVA Anderson replied:

You're so right, Terrance....at times I forget, the fact is, I am who I am, to please nobody but me, and.....to be the 'drama queen' still kicking now, at my ripe young age, so, I heed your advice,and listen to the music, create the climax, every time!,and , to quote Dylan T."she's an artist,she don't look back"...too right,or, over her shoulder. I sure need this, your kick you know where...gearing up right now, then! Exhilarated,loaded,locked!!..VIVA

Wow...Window notwithstanding, my first impression is de Chirico - that intense light that pervades many of his compositions. The sloping, rigid line, a bridge ascending toward (a coming morning?); darkness of yesterday being blown away by the dawn's light [?]...Even that the reality be far from my projections, all else affirms the vitality that you have prescribed into the image. That it takes well to another person's sensibility, so easily, so immediately, has be qualify it as an Imagotype (the word that Jung missed in his glossary of terms, but substantiates in his definition of archetype)... So lifting, so imaginal of wonder. A real marker VIVA; Thank you for sharing!

VIVA Anderson replied:

Thank you, Terrance...all so much for me to absorb,and I want to absorb, so will be brief, with thanks, and then! reply..from my heart and mind, just as you always do to my work, so, back soon.......VIVA

VIVA Anderson replied:

Dear Terrance, in reply,belated/finally, Thank you for the 'Wow" firstly.......made my day. What is so lovely for me is your affirmation, to do with being unsure whether to share this, because it's so 'full' and perhaps, too much for the eye of the beholder. But, that you are liften and full of wonder, is more, so much more than I could have hoped for (never mind also,being mentioned in the same breath as himself, de Chirico)....I especially like your term "marker"....you do so know my fearless 'way' ! I'm grateful to you, and, to those who've responded....all of which, 'blows away yesterday's darkness'.....Thank you, again. VIVA.

Here it is! I was looking for where I left this... I am a big fan of distortion. I'm a big fan of the image telling its story and not the story of the camera's lens. It's like seeing out of the corner of the eye. We don't need to see the detail in order to interpret. That's what this image means to me. PLAU UPD cfel

VIVA Anderson replied:

Thank you so much, Uther. Especially b/c you get to the heart of 'my' matter...the fact is that my vision is now distorted, and it's a strange blessing...as long as I try not to fix it ! As long as I stay true to my intuition...the camera cannot read one's intuition,yes,correct, and so, when I think it's 'done', I leave it, as it is, and wonder but never doubt that the truth for me lies in what 'I' see/feel, and then I can only hope I'm understood, or not, for that matter. A member, James Geddes, once said to me: 'You manage to say so much with so little", and my soul smiled......you, he, get it, and what a joy for me that you do, and that you bother to say so! Thanks again, Uther.......VIVA.
