This week I am traveling again, accumulating the energy of artworks everywhere:  I have marveled at the amazing  hyper-decorated surfaces of Chris Ofili and at the three dimensional tension of Henry Moore's string scultptures at the Tate.  I have lost myself yet again in the hugely brave lilac strokes of Monet's water lilies and marveled at his early courage.  The influence of his abstract gesture has affected so many, from the geographic boundaries of Clifford Styl, to the emotional stains of Helen Frankenthaller,  to the neurotic scribbles of Cy Twombly and frantic drips of Jackson Pollock.  All of the above share an all over surface activation and energy that fills me with awe.  I am taking this to the bank and investing it into my own work when I get back...stay tuned.
