Abstract Art
and
David Michael Jackson

How did this happen? What is it about me that makes an abstract artist?. The paintings themselves. The unwillingness to paint the same thing twice.  The lack of good motifes. Boredom with representational art. The need to cast it onto the canvas in one bold stroke. The absolute gall to even try has to be evident.
I want you to see a duck where I see a mouse and she sees a face. Often good abstract art is a different and totally acceptable expression upside down.
