communicating the art itself

Field Hand - digital painting - art prints - Dan Beck 2006

Over the weekend - someone asked about Marc Chagall and I thought of this piece, but could not remember what it really looked like.

It is always interesting how memory and current perception vary. I think I like this more than I did originally. The pun is fun - but the way it is painted including the rather primitive face works today. I feel like the field might blow away - there is this dreamlike quality and world of its own which is the essence of art in many ways.

I love doing abstract work - love not having to follow any sort of guidelines but the piece itself. But I also like to engage people in a subject or a vision which I feel is worth sharing.

The field worker looking at the dirt is both what we imagine and what really happens - in my case, I got to see it - and felt like it was worth sharing - but in this way unique to me - not so deep really.
