I prefer 1120067A, though the blue of the large handle on the right seems more isolated than the other parts.

Peter… Your amber varnish jar…exquisite example of fueled perception, and “not the photographed, but other”. Back too many years ago at Pratt, I was fortunate enough to work two semesters with Sibyl Moholy-Nagy, “Color and Light”. She assigned to me at a turbulent time in life, to do a portrait of my remembered visions of a brother who during that time had committed suicide. That assignment in a minimum of 50 layers, (pigments bound in linseed oil, tempera underpaint) stunningly has informed my perception, vision  and otherness of that which we are able to see if we rest long enough allowing it to make the journey to us. That luminous magic of the journey light travels to reach one from those glazes jumped out to my gasp on seeing your “jar”.
The quinacridones and other organic pigments of those days, then the newer transparent iron oxides (burnt sienna, yellow ochre) leapt out of my monitor transporting me to a cherished time and gratitude for a gift received so long ago. Thank you. Lumine!

Hi Patricia,

I too attended Pratt and studied painting and illustration. Lots of memories, some great and some not...All, however very powerful.
Every day in the studio brings back so many instructors words and ideas, that at the time fell on somewhat deaf ears, that today ring with truth and forever guidance.


Best,
Peter

I am a lucky man. My wife, Barbara, made me a wonderful brush holder.
