I can totally relate to what Linda, Tom, and Thomasin are saying. This conversation expresses what I like most about certain paintings and styles, including yours, Thomasin, Burton Silverman's, and others. Yesterday I was admiring the still life paintings on Ilaria's (forum member's) website and I felt the same way about them. For me there has to be a sense of mystery, a sense of being painted, evidence of being worked on, of the process and the resolution of the process. This resolution is most interesting for me when it is brought to varying degrees of finish in acordance with the focal point and, concurrently, with what the artist is trying to say.
