The Millenium Stone - watercolor - 8" x 10"by Dave Martsolf
I have no idea what that means. It just seemed pretty solid to me, so that title just came out of nowhere, which is where most of my art comes from as well, so who am I to judge?
This work is a watercolor on 90 pound cold press paper. The original is for sale for $298 US plus shipping. Contact Dave Martsolf through Bubblemail or at davidmartsolf@comcast.net for details.
Solid it is….but just as a concept… visible… for a moment.. the shapes, shades, textures are organic and inviting to dream about the recreation of a a new different being….as if a mind-body would evolve into another shape. I know this is quite true, but seen just as our own eyes can see it So….not the truth. Art. is tryin to get to the “real thing” all the time… and the artist’s mind is not that of one “interpreter” but of a “journalist” of the Essence… though.. is not a picture frame… for one is out there, it belongs to the evolution of the viewers And working into them. Aso this is…. Woman in process… fighting against the lineal mind of the “animus”. Rosa (I love it)
Hi Rosa, Whenever I stretch my mind and idea of bodily form, I may twist and turn it, blob it, or make millions of feathery fiber tendrils, but whenever I am through stretching I always seem to come back to the human form. And in dancing I realize this is the form I love best. Only know older I have to do most of my dancing in my mind’s eye, or live it through watching others and wishing I could just stand up in my seat and wave my arms and legs wildly all over the place. Hah, it would be laughable as the ushers dragged me out of the theater, eh?
Hi Clare, Glad you like it. As I look back to the day of creation of the original line drawing I think you are right. The indescribable art force just picked up the pen and let go on the paper. – Dave
Nice! This stone seems full of expectant life. We need only to await the explosion into being and perhaps, from this the next “Big Bang.” From a germ of an idea to a whopper of a happening. Thank you for introducing me to your visions.
Thank you Roy for all your kind comments on my work. It has been hard to keep at it, but I really hope some day (maybe in 10 years after I retire from corporate life) to work full time on all these wonderful worlds I dream of and live in. Best of success to you for all your work’s efforts. – Dave

Nice work Dave. Art for art’s sake
