As I pass through undiscovered lands and across terrain I have never seen before I wonder…………
Should I go forward? Where is this leading to? Should I return to the familiar? The safe? The known? Is this a waste of time?
Doubts, fears, images flood my mind to the point where I am exhausted.
I must rest. Lie down and sleep.
So I do.
Suddenly I awake to a new vista. This place is beautiful.
Then I remember ….
YES! I am an artist, a creator and I can place myself wherever I want to be.
…………and the journey continues.
About The Journey…… this is an actual journey I am experiencing right now. It began with a painting and I have no idea where it might be leading. The discoveries I am making are REAL but they are coming from my artworks. These are all new artworks and they are REALLY amazing me …. I hope you enjoy them too.

Amazing!… On the first painting I saw a bird eye-view of the wetland, I can see the beauty of the terrain and see the blue sky mirrored on it but I am not sure if that is what you reflected. The second painting is rather more clear but no less fantastic ! I am so impressed. Thanks for nice post.
Muhammads………All my work is open to your interpretation. I always get more joy out of other peoples response rather than any meaning I might seem to give it. I want to see the world as other people see it and I always find this facinating. Many thanks, Robert
Thanks a lot, Robert. I supposed to be a painter at the beginning of my life but naturally I have too many thing I like and so hard to tell here. I really enjoy the color you are using, it’s just very impressive to me.
I’m so glad to have caught these paintings on their second time around. Wetlands, for me, is all about the luscious and inviting nature of paint itself – reflective of an inner state of creative hunger. Another Place is another visit to the painter’s room / studio that you recently posted. A fine place to be…
I’m so glad you have. Your assessment of Wetlands is accurate… a love of paint and the powerful drive to express it….play with it….allow it….
Another Place…….well that’s……… another place.
