I think all artists dealing in fiction, whether writing or 'painting' would like to find that connection to the universe. Something that takes us out of our current perspective, and allows our mind to open to the possibilities. Of course, we need to do that and still have enough of 'real life' in our work that it still feels relevant to the reader/viewer.JA Grier (ee/em/eir)https://www.blogger.com/profile/10733447921892286243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6627256068921784962.post-34443525975138671952010-04-20T00:29:18.465-04:002010-04-20T00:29:18.465-04:00From Fiery

This more abstract art, that is the fractal or psychological, leaves a lot of room open for the viewer to impress their own interpretation. This one seemed so obvious to me, but I wonder how someone who was unfamiliar with the 'blueberries' might have seen it?JA Grier (ee/em/eir)https://www.blogger.com/profile/10733447921892286243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6627256068921784962.post-19357816084587186772010-04-15T13:36:26.045-04:002010-04-15T13:36:26.045-04:00Wow, that's amazing.
