Its more than a year since I posted some of my art. There are reasons! But here are a few more – continuing more or less where I left off.

Night
Music
Exploring an old theme of mine with new apps.
There is rhythm in this style so I call them Music.
Conversations on a City
With the art Gallery out of action this is a wonderfully innovative exhibit. I was moved to see that with many of these buildings gone, their heritage can survive.
Well worn iPad
Following this idea that the digital image can fade, wear, and enhance its beauty over time.
Wabi Sabi Photos -> Mark Tobey
Now I wonder how much wabi sabi influenced the work of Jackson Pollock and those whom bought calligraphic ideas from japan like Mark Tobey

Another of three
This is an image (like all these recent instagram ones has been somewhat mutilated by filters. The thing is that in cyberspace things don’t really wear down with age or use, but instagram instantly gives the image some sense of being worn in – like a n old pair of jeans. Then I think wabi sabi. I looked for images with that tag and found a few that sit well alongside this one 9and the others probably) – ill post them up in the next post.
