Why for some reason, when i immediately looked at this abstract picture i got a Salvador Dali\Picasso feeling about the piece. amazing if you ask me !

Wow, thank you. Actually I was studying the theories of Goethe and Kandinsky regarding color harmony at the time. It is a bit surreal. I wonder if you can see the elegant hostess, her butler, the snooping eye of the guest, a hanging lamp, a table, and a bunch of trash hidden in a closet?

Ah yes, i remember reading about Geothe's theory of colour and how it inspired Kandinsky's Abstract artistic adventure. you had some valuable influences on, Company's coming' well obviously i could see the Eye of the guest, it reminded me of someone looking through the outside window with, what looks like curtains on the left side, desperate to enter and like guests do, Snoop around or. 'check the place out' the Lamp, the table, i fail to see the butler or hostess, i thought hod bread was on the table, next to the lamp, i came to the conclusion it was hot because the lamp was so close to the bread, so, 'hot bread is served' to look at the abstract, it has a very 'Art Deco' visual feel to it. i imagined it to be from both the Guests perceptive on the outside and the host's perspective on the inside. this is what i like about abstract. it allows the spectator to come to his or hers own conclusion, what the piece  is about.

You're so right, as usual, in your conclusion. It was meant to be an abstract, but when I finished I saw that the blue on the left combined with the wall sconce looked like an elegant woman, and the black vertical rectangle on the right looked like a butler. The gold half circle reminded me of those food covers used at fancy banquets. The purple in the lower right corner reminded me of stuff hurriedly put in a closet. In the end, it was really an exercise in complementary colors and blending oil pastels using paint thinner.
