Seeing Van Gogh’s Fishing Boats on the Beach at Saintes-Maries, for the first time in several years, I saw a similarity to the structure of Ready and Waiting. There was no conscious thought when the original photograph was composed and taken…but I think in many ways our brains are like computer hard-drives. We have lots of data stored that run beneath the surface of mementary awareness during the creative process that we are not even conscious of. It’s what makes our personal vision, aesthetics and intuitiveness ours alone…
