Interesting. When I saw it, I thought immediately “Western”. It reminds me of a western film where there are a bunch of buffaloes stampeding directly towards us (with the camera in the center, so they swarm around us). Back and to the left is a cowboy riding on his horse…. and at the rear is the cloud of dust from all the hooves kicking the earth up…..

Toni- don’t worry about it. You’re going to live forever, you’re going to learn how to fly high!

i see dead people. no, i see a vortex of indecision. NO! i see an exploding cotton candy cart and it’s headed right for us! LOOk OUT!

it does have an asian landscape feel to it. i’d call it “Ceci N’est Pas Une Japanese Landscape”. reminds me of many of the asian scrolls i framed in my past life. it’s lovely.

I see a large older woman wheeling her suitcase along a rocky path that leads up to a pool of water. I also see the Asian landscape too.

this is why i have grown to love making abstract art! i am really enjoying hearing the differences in ambiguous narratives and interpretations. i never thought i would be able to participate in abstract art because my brain tends to be literal and i also have a fear of blank white paper, so finding a way to work with my camera has been such a relief. now i can join the abstract party!

oh and andrew, i used to have the same problem with a particularly busy and menacing floral wall paper in my mothers bedroom. devil faces every 2 feet.

I see a woman leaning over backward with her head turned to the left to receive a kiss, her left arm reaching to wrap around the head of her lover. And the whole thing gives me a feel of a creepy Klimt painting with the gold and the lights all turned off. It’s Klimt meets Bertold Brecht.

But don’t go by me. I keep think theres a figure in the neighbors yard as I drive by it every night. Have for five years! When it’s just a stone pier with a boulder on top. I just can’t get used to it.

You already mentioned a good possibility it yourself- “Rorschach”.

Cue music-
The Ror-schach, it’s a little ol’ place where, we can get to-ge-ther.
Rorschach, ba-by!
