An Exhibition of Paintings
Possibilities | Paintings by Noel Danforth
There are so many possibilities lying next to the impossible. –Tal R, Artist
Painting is my creative flow at the intersection of the left and right brain. Intuitive and attentive, it is a conversation.
While painting, I cultivate space to experiment and let go of knowing. I trust the conversation. Each mark suggests a new question, each response holds an unfolding story. It is this back and forth—this careful looking and listening—through which the painting emerges.
Living with art—abstract art in particular—can be transformative. It allows for gray areas, individual interpretations, and bringing one’s life experiences to the artwork. By identifying with the gestural quality of a line, the ambiguity of a shape, and the emotion of color, we gain insight into ourselves and others. Engaging with art is an opportunity to glimpse our interconnectedness. And, with curiosity, the possibility that abstract art can unearth transcendent beauty.
