i cant take it.
sooooo intense
must look more laster.
neil-you are an artist of thread that weave through many things.
and they all hold together without falling like tiny needles (the threads tool)to the space of someodd ground.
how many needles..
i ...weird-i made a typo-as i often do--many!---hope you thin i cant spell-i cant type-type with 2 fingers-and too fast too too fast. but one word came typo-ed out as a number---odd.
so meaningless...bur i'll tell u anyway: 12

i like this piece. the serene colors seem to be broken by the spaced blocks... they almost feel like windows...

i have something more to say...

Feather is past memory and the Bird, present life...collector always living in the past, an imaginary world...and there is no interest of the living bird but the dead feather.
and became the hunter to collect the feather...

the positions of the windows are denoting a room
white walls...there seems to be something written on the wall....
looking out of the windows there's darkness, black night....I feel there's something warm missing in this room...the light is bright but cold

There is something written on the wall, I started writing in the half dry paint...seemed to want it there. Regarding the bright but cold feeling - yes, spot on (as ever)...the light is 'off' in the room but 'on' outside the room, in the memory...

Birgit-Zartl-Art In reply to lien [2007-08-13 17:58:00 +0000 UTC]

I thought it the other way round, light in the room, darkness outside
or
did I miss something...now I'm confused

i screwed up, i put the lights on and off in the wrong place

your inside
it's dark outside
theres something written on the wall..but...
you're projecting your memory of outside (when it's light) onto the wall...maybe you have your eyes closed/half open...

As soon as Brynn learns to not put her hands in her mouth at every given opportunity she can take over ..
