Metaphysical Hunger

The yearning to return to a simpler, purer way of life is as difficult as physical hunger. The only difference is that it's not a hunger of the stomach, but of the mind and soul. image size: 10.5 x 14.5" (27 x 37cm) Corporate Collection) © 2000, Michael Cook

Michael, You do wonderful work. I must say that your landscapes are my favorite! Esp. the ones of the country.

Nice piece, Michael, reminds me of a farm in Cape Breton which I intent to paint sometime. Every time I go past it I stop and take notes and sketches and photographs but still haven't found just the right composition. Thanks for doing this one!

Artist Reply: Thanks, David. I'd say it's best just to steam ahead... Make the sketches, take the photos, but then go out there with your materials one day and just paint it! You might be surprised at what spontaneity reveals!

I understand this hunger... this work is superbly memorable and reminiscent! Watercolor, pastel? Julie Mayser,AW member unable to login for unknown reason.
