Time Passages
Time is an interesting concept.
Although I’ve never actually seen it, apparently it can fly, run out, go by, slip away, and even stand still.
Regarding the past, I choose the good memories.
Considering the future, I try to aim high.
For sustained peace of mind however, nothing beats the present moment.
That’s where art is done.

I love this. It reminds me of something or a place I cannot put my finger on. Is this a place you know?

Surely, your capture of the buildings reminds me of the steadfast TIME that all the farmers and others spent creating their farmstead and livelihood. Thank you.

I am curious about what the cluster of brick houses/ buildings is or was used for originally.
Do you have information? This is such a peaceful painting— so needed at this time.
Thanks Sandra, this painting is loosely based on a local scene here in Middletown Springs, Buxton Ave. From my perspective, It is a group of aging Vermont buildings and barns kind of tucked, tangled, and integrated into the overgrowth and trees. Evidence of time passing. Past a mystery, future unknown. So as in most of my work, less of a literal or factual interpretation than one of mood and personal feeling.
With all the chaos our world is in now, it’s so serene to look at your work Peter. Your paintings always give me a sense of peace and confirmation that life is good.
Thank you Peter.
Time Passages are your most profound words and so perfect during this difficult time. Your paintings bring joy to so many lives. Thank you for your most welcoming weekly e-mails.
