Hey Daniel
We too holidayed in Stanley in early May 08. We experienced a similar rapture at the dreamy misty timeless works by Kerry Martin. I fully agree with your eloquent description embracing the Romantic era and Japanese print making. We bought one of the large works and it hangs at one end of our family room. We walk in the back door and look towards the disappearing waters of the Gordon River. The steps to the cellar are beneath it, delineating our here and Kerry's there in moat-like fashion.    </content:encoded>

I can only imagine the look on your face as you looked down to see the open railway lines! Must have been hilarious :)    </content:encoded>

Thanks for the feedback.

Canon EOS 350D digital SLR camera is what I use. I mostly just use Aperture to organise and manipulate my photos. Usually not too much manipulation.    </content:encoded>

Hey, that's cool.  Very cave-like... or maybe even like a rocky outcrop over ocean with a dust-filled sky.  I like the reds in the middle.

It's interesting, it makes the painting so much more emotive; I guess it's the impact of the sky.    </content:encoded>

Thanks Julie :)
I am painting from these. But more in inspiration rather than in direct and literal copying.    </content:encoded>

Daniel! I love these images! The cloud one with that eerily glowing street light is fantastic. Are you gonna paint from it? The colours are beautiful, ominous......very War of the Worldsy. :)    </content:encoded>

    <title>Mike Tyson: The definition of abstraction</title>
    <link>http://danielrigos.com/blog/archives/114-The-definition-of-abstraction.html</link>

A very thought-provoking exposition, although I'm not entirely sure I'm convinced by the notion of an intrinsic link between the abstract and the spiritual.

&quot;It would have been given spiritual significance because it depicted the non-material&quot;: Why do only non-material depictions possess spiritual significance, and not the material? Does this mean that works depicting the material are not spiritual?
I think the spiritual content of art is subjective though (which I'm sure you'll agree with), just as the 'abstractness' of art is subjective, as you skilfully suggest!

I like your suggestion that 'abstract' and 'representational'  are simply two endpoints of a continuum, with the added caveat that where a piece sits on the continuum is also a function of the visual knowledge and recognition of the viewer.

It's an interesting concept - the shifting of the abstract to the representational in the presence of knowledge, the nebula being a great example.

I look forward to reading the rest    </content:encoded>
