I use simple phrases to describe how I feel about art. “Damn I like that” or “very colorful” none the less Claude Monet would be proud of you as am I.
I always remember one of his sayings. “ More than ever despite my poor sight, I need to paint”. Paul
It is your M&M's, I tried to spraying them with water to maybe give them a sheen...
They began to melt and I rolled them on a paper towel....which did not dry them out...Yet, this is my favorite image and something I am actually proud of...this is very good Post-Impressionism...obscure form, but vibrant, yet symbolically coherent and meaningful...
So the story is that you can only take the picture that is in front of you, be it street art or the remains of melted candy on a paper towel that looks underneath like an actual cloth canvas...
But I can dress it, contrast,color, shadow an excellent crop and noise reduction three times in different variations...and then the image, for better or worse is mine...and I am mightily happy with it. For me.
