I know I've talked about this before but I am thinking about it again. And maybe you weren't there then when I first discussed it. The light was beautiful that day as it was everyday in Los Angeles in 1956. I was inside my head that day -deep inside and happy and lonely and warm. It was our first large painting day. I was using a bunch of reds and yellows...but I decided to cover it all with blue, with every blue. I found I could make up blues using little bits of other colors. I felt I was in heaven, in fact I had a foot in heaven's door.
After a while I noticed that almost everyone was gone. I was alone with what I felt was a masterpiece in the making. My happiness overflowed and seeped out of me onto the table, the floor, the walls of the schoolroom, to the face of the clock... I was possessed...there was more than a hint of madness flowing through me.
