Resonance..............The Richness Of Experience...........The Restless Symphony Of Ethereal
Frequency..............The Vibrating Strings Of Pure Discovery.........The Simple Song............Of Nature
So Many Portals.............So Many Universes, Planes And Dimensions..................So Many
Approaches.............So Many Steps In the Excited Dance.............It Is The Wonder Of Wonders.....................This
Constant "Seeking".....................This, Yes, Evolving "Search"..............Yes, This...........Chasing Of Existence
With The Fury Of Natural Invention
Image -- Icon -- Idea
McNease--Contemporary Abstract Artist
Post Contemporary--Art Of The Future
In Nature, What Has Been Said Will Never Be Said Again.................Changes And Differences
WIll Apply....................And So It Is With This Concept Of Time(As We See It)...........The Progressive "Instant" Of
Nature Has Use For No Such Concepts..................Nature Vibrates To Her Own Rhythm...........Measure For Measure...................Verticality
Louisiana Artist--Portfolio
When All Else Is Dust, Only The Energy Of Thought Will Remain
Atonality And Dissonant Measure.........As Great A Part As Any Other............Perhaps More
So.............For They Are The Fires Of Natural Creation............They Are The Furnaces Of Change.............They Are
Source
Abstract Expressionism--Icon And Myth
.........As With The Eyelids Closed, Observing The Image Which Floats In Front.....Always Moving
And Changing And Morphing Into New Shapes And Forms..........Always Changing...........Dark Becoming Light......And Back Again.........Brilliant
Light Traverses The Darkness......Only Briefly Though......Only Briefly........Bright Orbs Fill The Vacuous Frame......Briefly
Though........Only Briefly..........Blink
Yes, But Does It Presume Something Other In Its' Structural Rigidity?.........Or, Is It A Simple
Stopping Point, A Signpost, Along The Way?........A Break?.........Pause?........Respite?..........Perhaps, Even, One Hopes,
A Nexus

Art And Process--Concept And Wonder
That Early Morning Walk In The Garden Of Celestial Delight, When The Quiet Is Punctuated Only
By The Sound Of Vastness....................Echoes Are Frequently Heard..........................................Whispers
Even........Breaths...............Consciousness Even
Contemporary Mixed Media Artist--Galleries
Conceptual Art--Natural Imperatives
The Window Narrows On The Open-ness Of Chance....................Futile Memories Flood Vacuous
Tears Of Disgust And Disgrace...What Is Becomes What Might Have Been, Then, What Could Have Been...............Options Remain...............But
Few
Southern Artist Review--McNease
Sound(Word) As Part Of The Process........Also(Word) As Contrast Through Juxtaposition(Meanings?).......And,
As Image(Placement).....Also The Possibility Of Word(Without Meaning--Whatever That Is) As Distinct Sound With The Further
Possibility Of Creating "Time" Through Sound......Dimensional Stuff..........Stuff Of Dimension........Things To Do Today.......Tomorrow
Too
Why Are You Telling Me This?............Why Do You Speak Of Previous And Very Uncertain Episodes?.............Why
Do You Continue This Diatribe Of Reason?...........Or, Is It Treason?........Why Do You Find Your Way Into The Clear Light
Of Mind Only To Disappear Again Into Uncertainty?
Southern Abstract Artist--McNease
Ha.............(Again).............Distance As Squared By Infatuous Reason.............Streams
Of Energy And Energy Of Streams, All Heading To The Same Inconclusive Conclusion(For How Can There Be When There Is No Beginning
And No End?)
Non Representational Art--Amorphs II
Harmonics Outside The Visual Two Dimensional Frame...............Unseen......Unheard......But
Like Any Number Of Dark "Particles" Traveling Through Space On Endless Adventures..............Felt........................(Energy
Of Thought Also)...........Empirical Notions.............(Carefully Reasoned)
Things For "What Else They Are"...........The Old "Why Is The Sky Blue?" Question..............Technically
Easy Stuff Now...........Wavelengths, Scattering Effects, Etc............But From My "More Important" Point Of View....................The
Evolution Of Our "Way Of Seeing"...........The Development Of Our Rods And Cones To View, Thus Perceive, The World In a Particular
Way.............There Simply Are So Many Other Ways To See, Perceive, View, The World..............We Have Been Held(Still
Are) Captive By Finite Vision As Dictated(Previously Necessary) By Environment........For The Species To Progress, Evolve,
It Must Expand Its' Horizons Beyond The Limited Spectrum(Real And Unreal)............It Must View Things For "What Else They
Are"...................Presently(Unfortunately) The Question May Well Be "Why Is The Computer Screen Blue?"

At The Edge Of The Vortex...............Viewed At The Periphery.............As...........Out
Of The Corner Of the Eye.................That Ephemeral Glimpse...................That Singular Ecstatic Moment...................Before
Falling To The Gravity Of The Ultimate Experience
Resonance………………Ate………….Ant…………………….What
A Wonderful Word………….Relationships And Echoes And Yes, Vibrations And Exclamations of Eloquence……………..If
There Is A "Theme" To This Month’s Work, That Is It………Resonance Between Objects And Forms And Colors
And Yes, Words Even…..Simple Imagery…………..Some Of It Even "Geometric"(Which Is As It Should
Be Often, For Much Of It Is Music-Math)……….And All Of It Direct From The Source………It Really
Shouldn’t Amaze Me When I See The Results And The Ever Changing Thoughts From My Constant Dialogues With Nature…………So
Utterly Simple………As Simple As A Fine Life Itself………Yes, Resonance……………..I
As A Single Element Of Many Paddling Through A Flooded Swamp Of Ethereal Richness, Resonating, Vibrating To The Music Of A
Very Natural Flow………..
DoDa
Word Continues To Find Its’ Way Into Several Of The Pieces...........…So Many Levels…..….And
Certainly No Single "Meaning"………….…Do Enjoy The Many Contrast Brought Forth Between Word And
Object Or Even Color For That Matter………Also Word "Placement" As Object Or Element Within The Piece……..And,
Possibly Most Important, Word As "Sound"…………(In Fact Some Of the Words Are Not Words At All—But
That’s Another Story)………Very Interested In Bringing The Element(Indeed The Dimension Itself) Of Sound
Into The Picture…………..And Words Do Exactly That—Create "Sounds" Within The Mind…………………...Obviously,
Another Form Of Resonance…………Mind To Plane
DoDa
Getting Ever Closer To The Purity Of That Elegant Single Line……..Still Reducing……Still
Assuming A "Less Is More" Approach…………Often Very Difficult To Do So….Sometimes Difficult To
Grasp The Fact That All The Information In The World Can Be In A Single Point…….Sometimes My Own "Human-ness"
Gets In the Way
DoDa
So Many "Gifts" Ahead With The Approach Of Spring………(In My Part Of The World Anyway)………………..Emergence………….Birth…………Rebirth……….Color
and New Form(s)……..That Touch Of Light On An Emerging Leaf………Mist As Well ……Gathering
Dew………….Sustenance……………Sounds And Echoes In The Swamp…….Forest…….At
The Shore………..Visions And Images And Forms And Forces And The Many Wonders Of The Silence Of The Unseen………..The
Unknown………Such A Richness To It All……..Such A Polite Fineness……………Proclaimed……………By
No Reason………..Other Than Itself
