ACCESS TO MY IMAGINATION
my paintings are made up of brush strokes (letters of words) formed into sentences developed in my mind - as thoughts & ideas - put forward through my applying paint on canvas - the paint strokes for me are (letters) not yet put into words - in front of me is a blank canvas at the ready for an image developed in paint - by use of brush strokes - I translate my thoughts (letters or words) to a vision on canvas using paint - a painterly sight begins to form...

I have constant thoughts of the act of painting - using materials I wish to use - acrylic paint - brushes - canvas - some water - acrylic medium - ...with a rag in my hand to wipe clean brushes - I begin to paint - I am in an area of calm and enjoyment - a sense all my own that the paint has created - giving me ACCESS TO MY IMAGINATION -

Terms:

Canvas: an area to divide into a composition -

Acrylic paint: a medium used to show the composition -
