“Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night.”
― Edgar Allan Poe, Eleonora
This is another new small piece that is headed to the West End Gallery this weekend. I am finally hitting some responsive chords in my work and feeling a new creative flow building which is reassuring. This recent work has felt great coming out, free and easy without having to stuggle, and I think it shows in the work itself.
It’s all work that appeals to my own sense of what I want to see.
Maybe what I need to see right now.
That I can’t answer. But this feels good and right so I am pretty happy in the moment.
I am calling it Hold Back the Night after a favorite song from the 70’s, a cover by Graham Parker and the Rumour of the song of that title which was originally recorded by the Trammps a few years earlier. Very upbeat which matches my current view for my work in the near future.
As I said, pretty happy in the moment.
Of course, tomorrow might be a different story. So, for today, I am going to take in the colors and forms and sing along with Graham. Hope you’ll do the same. Have a good one but be careful out there.
Seems like a lot of folks have a little more spring in their step lately!
Hmm… There must be some reason but we don’t need to talk about that, right?
Right
