procession
from a tiny travel notebook

i started this notebook in Paris and enjoyed using papers from the daily explores. here i can recognize scraps from the catalog of the CAFE TURC series of events at the Tuileries.

kandinsky

improvisation 7

Kandinsky identified 3 types of paintings (designated by titles associated with music):
-impressions, based on real life subjects.
-improvisations, spontaneous and unconscious images from the artist's inner life.
-compositions, formally developed formats, often preceded by a series of studies.

interesting to say the least!

so different from the previous ones. maybe coming from a combination of sketch class and visiting Lore Hauptman and delighting in her collages.

strange characters. who are they? where do they come from? that's what i like about the collages. they are surprises to myself.

sketch class was great fun. decided to give paul some clothes for a change. new perspective.

3 weeks back from Paris and asking myself questions. why? where now? good?
