The title ‘stateside’ really has nothing to do with these 2 paintings. It’s just that I have an exciting trip planned to San Francisco and New York for the end of the month. The excitement is boosting my energy levels so I am painting rather furiously. Also, I have Richard Diebenkorn on my mind as I will be staying in Berkeley and will try to see as many of his paintings as I can

I love the intensity and vigor in these paintings.
Thanks. Their final coat was painted with an element of frustration. I had been working on some smaller, tighter pieces that weren’t working! And I decided these large pieces were strong enough to let me a) use black which is unusual for me and b) work very loosely and quickly and intuitively.
Well, I really like them and I think your intuition is leading you to some great places.
Enjoying the energy here.
Thanks đŸ™‚
There are also nice buildings in Berkeleley designed by Julia Morgan
Will look out for them, thanks đŸ™‚
