When I painted “SF Golden Gate Bridge,” I was thinking about two people who should never have met, but did. A man from Oakland. A woman from Mongolia. Different languages. Different histories. They would stand together and look out at this bridge, searching for words, then giving up on words and letting the silence do the work instead. Over time, they learned each other’s language. Slowly. Imperfectly. But even before the words came, there was this place—this span of steel and light—that held them both. I began to see the Golden Gate not just as architecture, but as a quiet witness. A bridge between countries, cultures, and the small, ordinary evenings where two people try to understand one another. This painting grew out of their love story. Out of the space between them, and the way they crossed it. SF Golden Gate Bridge | Open Edition Giclée Matted Print pforbesart.com/product/sf-gol… via @Power_WithinU

The project of creating, managing, and curating a Juried Art Exhibition is done. I was happy with the results and all the help and guidance I received from the members. Now I am focusing on just painting. I lose hours in the brush strokes and colors. I decided to do a video of me painting. The first frame is a black hole.

Morning thoughts; Art is always an expression of what is inside us. Sometimes we express what we already know. Sometimes we express what we don’t yet have words for. Many of the great artists seemed to do both. Van Gogh painted to share what he saw, yet also to understand himself. Monet returned to the same subjects to explore light. Rembrandt’s self-portraits became a lifelong conversation with aging. Whether shared with the world or kept as an inner dialogue, every painting is a record of a moment in the artist’s soul. art therapy thoughts and progress on my painting. Progress on my painting.

I go to bed thinking about the paintings I am working on. I wake up and add a bit more to the paintings. I might be obsessed… The two I am working on.

@karunpal You are so correct. Most people don’t give you any time in their mind.

Nobody cares as much as you think. But if you grew up with parents judging you for every little thing, you think everybody is doing the same. They are not.

Who is winning the battles of your thoughts? Scarcity asks, “What might I lose?” Purpose asks, “What can I give?”
