Water Color Abstracts, Reflections

I found these while on a hunt for abstract water color paintings:

I like to sit in, though currently I don't have time to commit to any classes. I do wish I could be working more with clay though.

I like to paint with my woman. She gets frustrated quickly but she has some great starts. I don't often start well, but I love to develop a concept to fruition... or destruction. :-P

Work is a bitch. It's tough to re-invent a style and learn a new language. It's like breaking a collar bone, selling a dirt-bike, and pumping iron after months of dis-use. Actually, Python is rather easy. It's an old friend I somehow forgot to meet. ;)

I've never broken any bones in my life before. I'm thankful for that. I'm thankful my life is rich with experience. Someday, I'll be content as a starving artist, but for now I struggle with divided time and energy. I won't be poor all my life. :)

Is it better for every fiber of your being to be pulled taught like a piano string, or to have your consciousness drown in a sea of concentration? I've experienced both in my life and can't figure out which I prefer.

When at the height of my fitness level the bottoms of my feet develop steel cables and my bones become tender. I feel strong, virile at all times. I awake well refreshed, focused, driven. Power seems to surround me, pick me up, and move my body at my own whim; yet small muscles are prone to cramp like a vice in the span of months. I wonder if the trick to it is to study the effect of seasons on the human body.

If I had only one wish, I'd wish for three wishes. Peace in heart, mind and body. Love in spirit, truth and abundance... And infinite wishes.

    Thanks for featuring my artwork in your blog. The piece featured above "Axiom of Evil" is still available for purchase (as of 5-4-10), and there is a "making of" time-lapse video that goes along with the painting on DVD. Figured I'd share the link for yourself or any future visitors. :) http://jeffjag.com/animation_youtube1.php

    The video is great. It's always fun to see how other water color painters move their pigments around. ;)

    I'll have to keep an eye out for Dr. Ph. Martin's radiant watercolor next time I'm at the art store. Looks like they make fine green and cyan pigments.
