Looking at art changes your point of view

The new year brings with it a natural opportunity to begin freshly looking and creating!First stop is , MoMA and Marlene Dumas: Measuring your own grave ! I went to her show because I am drawn to her use of watercolor, thin oil glazes and yet powerful graphic impact

To remind me of images that constantly inform my work, I went to see Bonnard. It is amazing how each personal perspective informs us of new ways of looking at the world.I've found that everything I look at informs my perception and in time, my drawings, paintings and soul. Choosing to make time to see, read and experience what moves me can only help to deepen my work and consequently, my inner person.

 What do you choose to see to expand and deepen your life actions? Hmm.. a good question for the 2009!
