“It’s not what you look at that matters, it’s what you see.” Henry David Thoreau
I agree with Thoreau – what we see is all that really matters. About a month ago, I was given the opportunity to photograph the work of an aspiring Vancouver artist. The title of his work was Daily Disasters.
The colours reflect the colours of Vancouver: bright flowers with blue skies and rain clouds.
The artist remains a mystery to me. His paintings do not hang in an art gallery. They belong to the public.
I see art, although some tell me it really is a garbage can.

In the early 60’s I attended a workshop of Reinhold Marxhausen. He helped us see the beauty in “wrinkled faces” and “rotting tomatoes” :-)! and of course – the usual “beauties”!!

WOW! I will sit by that garbage can anytime! How appropriate: “Daily Disasters”. But not certainly his artwork–marvelous
