Chopin’s Nocturne Op.9 N0.1 image 17

There is never a quest for perfection.  It is never methodical in the progress.  It is never predictable.  And yet it is so human in that there is some perfection, some consistent methods, and just a little predictability. IT is like the actions in everyday life with its denials,  justifications, and compromises.

That is what makes it art.

Small update with the photo showing about 6 feet of the canvas.  This is a difficult canvas.  Sometimes it appears that different combos of colors are placed just to challenge the following days  efforts.  Maybe it is practice.  Maybe it is what art is: a slow awakening to what has to be done, no matter what is first thought, hoped, believed to be, or wanted.  It is the wanted that gets in the way the most.

Close up image of this 12 foot canvas.   This work has been filed under the Tag of Art, but there is a wondering…….hum?…there seems to be a considerable amount of blogging to this Tag that may have little to do with ART.   Yet, something to consider is that maybe what has been defined in the past as Art, is quite different from what appears, or wants to appear as current Art today on this Art Tag.  Really, a closer look is required which may reveal some obscure but artful meaning to many of these postings, but so far it has been a bad read.  More scanning and more thoughtful questioning will be required before moving on that hopefully may not be necessary.
