How far can I see? Are there boundaries and limits to dreams? Last night I traveled to a distant place so far away there yet remains no maps or charts for these territories. My travels were filled with awe and amazement at the new vistas I encountered. Planets, stars and asteroids of indescribable beauty and form presented themselves for my perusal and enjoyment. As morning broke I arrived back from where I started lying in my bed grasping to remember the wonders I beheld the night before. How can I reveal what marvels I surveyed with common ordinary paint and canvas? I know I will fall short of my desired goal of relating this experience but I must try. It is what I do. I am an artist. And artists paint. So I paint this small, modest and lesser account of what I chanced upon last night. I know that my attempt lacks the expanse and profundity of my experience but I still must try. So forgive my inept abilities to present my encounter in the way I wish I could. But if you are what do and you don't then your not. I have tried to live by this little aphorism. It has served me well. So, here I go again trying to be and do what I think I must. Just a simple artist who pushes oil paint upon a canvas striving to be a little bit better one canvas at a time. visionary imagist "Joey"
