Masterpiece

2-14-2014

     I'm fascinated with this piece. It never gets old.
     It looks like someone threw paint on the wall, but it's actually quite balanced. It has light and dark, high and low.  It's actually not on paper.  It's painted on cloth, hung somehow on the wall, without cracking the dried paint.
      I always feel like I've "discovered" it, when I walk by. I want to stop people in the hall, and say, "Look! Did you see this?"
     I like "messy" art, anyway. I saw a big tapestry one time in my dad's office that looked like someone threw string and paint on cardboard and hung it on the wall. It was as tall as the two-story entrance way.
     I think art is supposed to express "How you feel."  I guess that artist felt "messy" that day.  My dad said, "That's funny. I feel 'messy' today, too."
