Finley and I are off to Sandy's. I leave you with this inspiring article I ripped out of the local rag - click on the pic... His name is Ran Ortner - check him OUT!
emmett and I looked at this guys website for a long time discussing the merits of art that makes you say, "it looks so real"... I like the feel of these paintings...especially the ones that are very close and more dreamy, less reality... emmett really like the sea-glass green one that looks positively real. great conversation for us that went on and on... thanks!!! xo and the picture for the header is where we are living now too!!:)
hey annie, I went and looked again and longer myself. I love what he says about his art and his bio is interesting. "Life’s beauty is magnificent as it hangs at the edge of death, insisting upon its relevance." I too like the dreamy dark ones I like the green waves too, I actually like it all. Even the installations are so interesting. The fan blowing a bag of sand with a hole in it, the wall with the crack of sand blowing through. I was thinking that people love the ocean and waves because we are mostly water. Waves help people meditate - they are like a portal for introspection. They calm us down. I wish I had more of it. It makes me want to go to the beach more:)
