A Visit From Matisse
24X18
OIL
$900
He was so adept at painting table tops with the light from an open window overlooking the french countryside.
He drops in on me every once in a while to keep me honest about what I am really seeing.
The context of the table and the legs and the colors interlocking with the light.
Not as he saw it … after all he was living in a southern clime … but how he saw it.
One can learn a lot from letting the brush take control.
