Flashbulb Memories of Air & Movement

At night the road is dark. 
The trembling stars up in the sky are bright. 
Some of them are big.
They guide our path. 


I look at the temperamental sky, at the edge of storming over us. 
I think of Beethoven
-the passion I hear in his music.

The Path to a New Series of Paintings

"My Mother's Shears" is my latest commission by Ms. Majaro. It is a small 12"x16" oil on canvas that left my studio yesterday.
As the painting developed I got to think about the outings to antique stores that I did with my mother Emma and my aunt Nelly during my childhood. I used to be filled with expectancy hours prior to the outing. I looked forward to view antiquated objects; I always wondered what secrets or stories they could tell me if they could talk ...
Up to today's date I enjoy visiting antique and/or thrift stores; I am always looking for "that" particular object that brings an "Aha!" moment in me awakening my curiosity and my imagination.
"My Mother's Shears" is the first painting in the series of those objects I find on my outings to these stores. I will keep you posted on the next one but for now... 
here is: "My Mother's Shears"

Flashbulb Memories of Air & Movement

Endless road facing the sun as a gigantic medallion 
as waiting for us to melt our eyes ...
