This is but one of a series of abstract self portraits I’ve been working on over the past year. Seeing them together it becomes obvious where my motif lies. I’m the reaching triple undulation on the left. Virtually every work that represents me utilizes this motif. This particular work illustrates just how close I am to possessing myself. The double undulation with the half circle on the right are my dreams/horse/means of getting where I want to be. I am so close to taking it all for a ride, I can taste it. For now, they are just out of finger tip range. So far as I can tell, my grieving has faded to a point that my day to day, plans and life is back on track. I am balancing nicely and am ready to take my proverbial horse for spin. At least I’ve found him. Now I just have to tame him long enough to hop on. : ) Things are going and going well. I am still sewing up some open-ended projects but that is all being done as we speak. Looks like the rest of the year will be prolific and 2012 might just be amazing. I have to give this one more round of graphite to even out the surface… but client work awaits… Will have to do that tomorrow : )
