The Importance of Eyes

Third Eye - #3 in the Series "The Eye Has It"

Third Eye - #3 in the Series "The Eye Has It"

Having just recently experienced a big scare about the future of my eyesight, it stands to reason that I’m obsessed with eyes right now – not only their function, but their look and form.  As it turns out, I don’t need eye surgery this minute.  So, I’m relieved.  But having that dark spot in my right eye’s central vision makes painting a bit more of a challenge.  It seems, so far, that I’m able to work around what could be interpreted as  just a smudge on my glasses – even though it’s a smudge on my retina.

What this experience is doing for me is providing motivation to make art while the sun shines, so to speak.  My goal is to paint every day.  This is not something I’ve done before, so get ready to see a lot more art.  Did I mention how grateful I am for my health?

Have a wonderful weekend.
