-
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)
