Motifs can remain the same, but intentions often change over time. The mood of 2014 becomes different in 2015. “Tenderness and Thorns” mellows to “Tenderness.” “Cacti and Camellias” turns into only pure white camellias. Here is a brand new (nearly finished) painting: “Tenderness,” 102″x 256″, oil and acrylic on seven panels.
