Studio Views August 11, 2013

I have just entered into a new phase of studio activity and thought I would share  what has been happening in my studio this week.  All are works in process except the last one- Harmonic in Gold and Silver- that is completed and framed.

I think that every artist  has cycles of time in which there is no psychic room for artistic production.  Notice that I said production; it has been my experience that these
" lulls" or voids, if you will, are not empty at all, but are full in observation and introspection. Indeed, the creative process seems to demand extensive periods of quiet looking- a gestation period between spurts of activity.
