This one is different

I guess I could say that about each new painting I start and work through. But this one is vertical. I have never really worked in a vertical fashion before. I have always worked wide. I have always seen and felt my work as a sentence. But who says sentences can't be written vertically; like poetry. This piece was conceived totally in a stream of immediate consciousness and it continues to be worked on in that way. (I almost feel as though I should capitalize IT.) It's an absolute blast when you begin to really go with this magical thing/ability to speak through a process called painting. I can't begin to even imagine what is coming next.
