#34. The Magic of Painting

It might not come as a surprise that my predisposition to paranormal topics might also explain my skill in the arts.  My mother would say I was born an artistic prodigy, although my first drawings must have been worse than she lets on, however I did take advanced art classes at the Depot when I was 4 or 5, and was taking college level art courses through Art Instruction Schools by the tail end of my sophomore year in High school.  My point is that I take my art seriously, and I try to treat my life like a large painting, and I try to maintain my ability to bring new experience into my work.  It was 2008, and at this point my life had been eventful, and I was settling back into my life after a rough year that almost lost it all for me.  I had learned a lot, and I thought my painting career needed something new.  Despite the fact that I was intent on not feeding this topic anymore, I felt a responsibility to bring it into my artwork.  I wanted to take it as close to the borderline of real magic as my mind was, and I had a surplus of 4-Leaf Clovers, so I got to work.  In the end, the painting design I engineered functions as an active photo-suggestion machine, like an advertisement designed to enhance the overall impact of the 4-Leaf Clovers I use in them.  Whatever effect 4-Leafers have on people, paranormal or scientific, I set out to make them stronger, using practical techniques, such as the channels of opposite colors trumpeting out from the center.  This might be my crowning artistic achievement, although having a digital sketch on its way to the Moon on the Moon Arts Ark is debatably equal.  That is supposed to go up with the Andy Rover next year.
