Eternal journey

• A title is subjective when the art is abstract.

• Just like music without words.

• You relate to something.

• But the artist interprets their work.

Make a title for this artwork:

When City Lights Go Down

Fragments of Thought

- Filomena Booth

Symbolic Intrigue Filomena Booth• Filomena considers herself

an experimental abstract expressionist artist.

• Strong composition, visual texture, bold use of color, and trusting her intuition are just some of the elements that Filomena employs in creating works that elicit emotional responses from viewers.

• Her work, at times, may be subtle, and at other times vibrant and bold.

Fragments of thought

• http://www.artwanted.com/imageview.cfm?ID=981500&RefID=25745

• “In art, one idea is as good as another. If one takes the idea of trembling, for instance, all of a sudden most art starts to tremble. Michelangelo starts to tremble. El Greco starts to tremble. All the Impressionists start to tremble.” “Whatever an artist’s personal feelings are, as soon as an artist fills a certain area on the canvas or circumscribes it, he becomes historical. He acts from or upon other artists.” “The attitude that nature is chaotic and that the artist puts order into it is a very absurd point of view, I think. All that we can hope for is to put some order into ourselves.”
