For Rothko, color is "merely an instrument".

The multiforms and the signature paintings are, in essence, the same expression of basic human emotions as his surrealistic mythological paintings, albeit in a purer form.

It is really a matter of ending this silence and solitude, of breathing, and stretching one’s arms again ...

This was taken from the deck of "Rays on the Bay" Restaurant at the Sheraton Kona Resort on the "Big Island" of Hawaii. I watched this sunset evolve over the period of an hour and a half. I was fortunate enough to even photograph the 'green flash' effect as the last arc of the sun dipped into the Pacific (Photo to be posted later). I call the series "Rothko Sunsets" because the layering of colors in the sky and sea remind me of the paintings of Mark Rothko.

I have mixed feeling about this one because on the one hand, it is one of my favorite photos. On the other hand, I have no idea how it happened. Best I can tell, it is a double exposure that was a result of letting some goof use my camera to take a picture of me and my dad (which he botched). The next shot, I tried to shoot some clouds. This is what came out. ???

This is a representation of Mark Rothko's #14 which hangs in the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.. The difference is I took this with a camera where he used a brush, paint and canvas. His painting go for as much as $82,000,000. Wonder if I could get $2 for this one? ;-))

you know how when it snows at night, the lights all twinkle?

yes, baby.

and you know how rain makes the night a lot darker?

uh huh.

and you know the sound the baby frogs make in the spring?

yes, I do.

can we get some ice cream now?

sure, nor.
