The Story of "Vigilant"

Have you heard that classic statement about art, "What is the artist trying to say?"  and not known the answer - at all. I have!

So with this particular painting I've had many people ask me - what does it mean? I don't think this will answer that question but it's the best I have.

Somewhere deep inside I get captured by an image - whether observed, in a dream or in my imagination - and I want to paint it. I don't have much of an explanation for why. Maybe it's because I use painting to explore my curiosity and wonder.

​Then a funny thing happens. My paintings begin to speak to me as they reveal themselves on the canvas. I have trained extensively to improve my art skills so that I can paint what I see capably. Yet some of my very best marks and strokes and smudges have been spontaneous and unintentional. 

"Vigilant" is a great example of this process.  The image of the pierced apple has been with me since I was a teenager. I just got an impulse recently to paint it and the bird happened to jump in on it's own accord.  I had a blast painting it, without any concern over it's meaning.

When it was done the word "vigilant" jumped into my mind. The definition from Webster is: "paying close attention usually for the purpose of anticipating approaching danger or opportunity" and it seemed to fit.
