Details Linger at the Threshold of Perception

I've been thinking about titling paintings and photographs. I don't do it normally, since most of my work ends up in a hotel lobby where nobody cares about the name. When I do use titles I like to steal them. Is that wrong? I like phrases, groups of words that mean nothing out of context. Actually they don't always mean anything at all. I like song lyrics, too. The title of this post came from a review of an artist's work, it's on the LACDA.com website. It just sounds interesting, a good title for a painting, or a photo like the one shown here.

I've been working very hard in my yard today. I snipped, pruned, dug up, dug out and planted. Standing across the street looking at my house I think that my neighbors must be very happy with me. The result bears witness to "less is more".

I got an email from a designer today - yes on Sunday! She's in California, but working on a Dallas hotel project where the owners are insisting on using local artists. That's where I come in. She likes my work. I've sent off pricing and more images. I love doing local projects, it doesn't happen that often. Dallas is blessed with a good business climate and three major high end hotel projects are under construction right now: The W, Ritz Carlton, and Hotel Palomar. I hope one of those is hers.
