My reasoning for this is that I would like the person looking at a painting not to have a pre-conceived idea of what&nbsp;that painting&nbsp;represents. Since they are abstracts,&nbsp;a person can use their&nbsp; imagination. That is why I use that word in the title of this site.&nbsp;&nbsp; The first four letters of image and imagination are the same, a connection.</div> <div>&nbsp;Each painting is different, evolving. Evolutionary abstraction.</div> <div>&nbsp;</div> <div>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Think of the paintings as imaginative space.<br /></div> <div>&nbsp;&nbsp;</div> <div>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; "It is not&nbsp;<em>what</em> you are looking at . . .
