Spires surround us...
Giant headed people ascend smiling from steamy well lit pools. The flat din of people mixed with sirens in the distance and oddly, the jingle jangle of your keys as you turn toward me. Your earrings I observe are like tiny pearl moons floating in void. Spires surround us...
There are several images floating around inside my head. Perhaps too many to commit to physical form in my lifetime. Some have been there for a long time. Others appear spontaneously. Many, I can’t remember.
Sometimes, when I am lucky, my art can capture and produce a real world manifestation of these images. In most instances my camera finds the image manifested in the real world. On other occasions I create the image if its real world counterpart eludes me. This is why I get a rush during periods of creativity. I am capturing and depicting the mental images that until then, only existed as fleeting impressions viewable in my minds eye.
