I had the good fortune of being in the studio when the artist was working on this piece. I heard the reasoning behind the color choices. I watched as he layered the paint on the canvas. As I observed the artist work the brush, with concentration and somehow also inhibition, I thought about the desire we have to create something. To design, to build, to make. The pleasure in the process. I think this piece is quite beautiful. The orange tones are the sunset, the green the grass, the studio is my kitchen, and the artist, my own little sunshine, my 4 year-old. It inspires me to enjoy the process, and makes me want to dip a brush in some paint and see what happens today.
