Aye, Aye

 

  • Lines (I) with eye

 

  • The ayes have it…

 

  • Began painting this picture just to see what lines of primary colors gradually mixed might look like

  • Began to see the symbolism of the line as a horizontal “I”

  • Made the enharmonic modulation from “I” to “Eye”

  • Was reminded of a pictorial representation of rods and cones in the retina from a science textbook I remembered studying in my earlier years

  • After the painting was finished, it didn’t seem finished

  • Decided to draw an eye over the primary color lines

​

  • The I(s) should be horizontal (ie. – supine, as in 6’ under)
