Art as "Motifs of Real Life"...
My own art has always been influenced by the idea
of "motif" and "real life". Much of abstract, post-abstract,
and "contemporary" art lacks these directions, ending up "full of
sound and fury, signifying nothing", or worse, nothing but trivial
decoration.
Impressionist and Post-Impressionist artists used "Real Life" motifs (i.e., "what the
painting is about"), sharply in contrast to the idealized
"not real" subject matter of established academicism,

I like to think of my artwork motifs quite specifically. That is, the works here are not "portrait of a woman"; they are Eva and Shannon. | EVA  SHANNON  |
