William BukowskiPeak Summer (detail)
in progress
I had a chance to see a Bonnard painting at the Minneapolis Art Institute today. I really liked how unintentional his brushwork looks. I also liked his use of blue and violet. I've seen the painting at least a couple of hundred times, but right now it seems more relevant. This is a detail of one of my garden paintings. I am beginning to feel like this is coming together.

Oh, Bonnard! I still remember the first time I saw his work at MIA - "across a crowded [gallery], our eyes met..." etc. and I was entranced. There's a Bonnard show here at the Met - and I'm dying to see it! Ah, Bonnard!
It is hard to beat a good Bonnard. He has been on my mind lately.
