Dekooning's Door

Inspired by his "Door to the River" (1960)
I like the tall rectangles
Figures, maybe
Gateways
Through spaces
Passages
My conversation with him


Splashing, striking, tearing
To break through to something new


Slowly rubbing, drawing, deliberate
To make a boundary

Internal truth

What is "internal truth?"
Connection?
The soul?
A place deeper than thought or emotion
The inner life, deeper stream

Practical examples of soul-stirring (to show a few)
