EXPAND HORIZONS

“This artwork was created using Neurographic Art techniques as developed by Pavel Piskarev in 2014.”


What happens when you "expand your horizons"? This "neurographic" image attempts to look at that and, so say, the image implies that we can arrive at diverse and amazing perspectives--as happened for me when it came to life here in my studio in Asheville, N.C

This image "happened" as I was enjoying morning tea and scones here on the mountainside. I took out a sketch pad and began working with a meditative/relaxing and envisioning technique using pen and ink. (While later I painted the image, I saved the original for a series of the "INKLINGS" collection here.

Working with creative energies with a meditative/relaxing and envisioning technique using pen and ink is exciting for you tend to be surprised with visual outcomes and the thought blossoms that accompany an image. The nudge and jolt when elements come together with a sense of joie de vivre as I experienced when creating this "neurographic" image can be captivating.

As David Bowie said, "I don't know where I'm going from here, but I promise it won't be boring." And THIS image was just that for me. .!!


For me, creating images is a coalescing experience. I "lose track of time" while in the creative flow, and feel a deepening sense of calm. I love the idea of lyrical abstraction where I can blend geometric and organic influences.

The technique I have turned to-(as you see here)- to work toward "letting go and moving effortlessly " into a creative process that goal is Neurographic art. It is one rooted in psychology and akin to meditative practices. For more info: https://www.neurographica.us


MEDIA:: Sketch for composition to paper. The result then captured as a photo and brought to create a JPEG. Finally, digital layering of the original materials.


Objective:: Narrative art with emotive content- that offers an opportunity for the viewer to interpret the story being told, and thus add to the story. Whether as a digital abstractionist, working as well on canvas and with photography to produce mixed media images, my hope is to engage the person who is looking at the image.

Symbolism :: Ever a sense of joy of life, transitions, new perceptions that evoke positive change, the embracing of an inner - symbolic-mythic- visual landscape that can reveal how disparate parts work together when visual impressions, founded on simple or more complex designs, build on a promising tale of life on Earth.
