Turner

Went to the Cleveland Museum of Art with Oliver this week. Together we stared into Turner's "burning of the house of parliament." The light was so intense a sky carved in paint and color. He lays it down so heavy and yet it seems like air clouds light. My studio is crazy forty things going a room of intensity I find it intimidating till I stand at the easel and then it fades the painting takes over. I finished my first two portraits they have inspired me so much.In New York so many lessons from the masters starting to filter through them and apply them to my painting . Things moving faster clearer. The light last couple of days all orange from the leaves on my walks and runs it glow, Turner .
