Artist
Artists express their impressions
on a surface with what’s in their mind.
The result may be viewed by many
who seek what they may find.
Notes by the author
I am not fortunate enough to enjoy works of art like paintings and sculpture.
Consequently, I wondered just what other people, who can't get enough of them were seeing, that I could not see and appreciate.
It struck me that perhaps these people didn't have a well developed 'photographic' memory and, therefore, were keen to refresh their visual memories, choosing works suitable i.e.., compatible with their experiences.
A second thought was that it is quite possible that different viewers of works of art see something different than their comrades; each sees the object before them, but the visual sensation may be modified in terms of their own experience.
