RE: Oil painting of Kruger Park!
I took note of your question and will give it great thought before answering it as a topic in a future blog.
But as for now I'm not so sure of what you mean. What do you mean from a great distance? Do you mean long before it was completed? Perhaps how the idea of the painting's composition was conceived and put together? That is: how an artists makes up a painting from nothing?
Far is my figurative language to describe that your painting lives in my imagination even though I can't reach it directly (far). And, apologize if my connotation language is not so effective. :)) 🙏
Ah, so that is what you mean. Thank you for coming back and giving me a better understanding of what you meant. OK, so it lives on in your memory. Well, some people have said that once they have bought my paintings, they find that under different lightnings, that is: different times of the day and night, they see something different every time. And that makes them always looking at it to see what else they have missed, and that makes the painting everlasting.
Do you know how I do that? I use more blurry content than detail. So have another look at my painting. Not everything in your painting has to be finely defined, only the important things. The blurry stuff is left to their imagination, to carry forward the story as they would like to believe in and change according to their own moods!
