Blue River

Birds in flight, starlings, across blurred landscape. Stones in a circle define flat plane with flowing blue river map image.

Blue River is an attempt to paint the fleeting glimpse. I read a short story by John Cheever that compared these moments to opportunities for insight. A circle of stones is perhaps a symbol for psychic unity (Jung), a work in progress or simply represents a consciousness of thought.
