Wakes On The Water


In my paintings...on canvas...swerving lines are often present...suggesting movement
in a still picture...in a way everything nicely squared away...usually doesn't.
The ferry leaving Tsawwassen...on the mainland...with its backing out...and turning
...painted on the water beautifully...on a lovely day. What is it about "wakes" left
by boats...that draw us in...and fascinate us?. Perhaps...our own journey in life...
and what we leave behind...is somewhere in there. In this picture...the boat that
wrote on the water...is nowhere to be seen...only the mark it left on the water. In a
little while...that will be gone too...but...while it lasts...it stirs the soul......
..........Quester.
