Amor en el Parque

Amor En El Parque - Watercolor on 9”x12'“ watercolor paper

How do you decide on one image, out of all the gazillions of potential images?

You just do.

Something tells you it could be worthy of your time, but you are not sure.

As you work on it, you start to see meaning and connections that maybe you didn’t see at first. You edit stuff out, maybe add stuff in. You start to make this one of a gazillion images ….special. That’s the magic of commitment. The magic of spending time, of patience and reflection.

It’s not the image itself that is the important thing, it is the patience and reflection and conciousness behind it that matters.

The faster this world gets….the more I become enamored with the one image. It takes time to see something. The story keeps unfolding.

Oaxaca has lots of booming fireworks, and thunder, and hard rain, and avocados that fall on our tin roof and a big cactus that fell in the storm. KABOOM! There are the occasional sirens and the musica, and then more fireworks.

The rain falls hard now forming a lake around our covered patio. The thunder again. The rain softens. The fireworks abate. It’s Thursday.
