Process and Studies

I forgot to mention , in my last post,  what other ideas I was working on...I was told in a critique last semester, that I should slow down on my art and experience my process. Well, this summer, that was my goal, my practice. I did not focus on creating anything per se, however, I did explore and make studies of random  or suggested ideas.
First, I started reading " Concerning the spiritual in Art" by W. Kadinsky. I wanted to  understand more or less what most of the abstract ideas come from. Being that he was musically trained, he certainly compared music to painting and all was linked to the spiritual. I relate very much to his theory or thoughts, being that I do make music(though not classically trained) and my work is based on spiritual ideas ( the invisible, esoteric, what can't be seen with carnal eyes) or at least these are my intentions.
I  understand what cannot be seen or has material description is left to be seen as abstract on the this plain, hence abstract art.  I played with some ideas and wrote a few notes down...so far  I am working through a thought, having no expectation of it but at the same time hoping it evolves into something. Below will be a preview. I do not want to explain it at the moment ( a huge reference is Kadinsky), since it is not quite formalized:

Then I was suggested as an experiment to study Still Life's of Morandi, which I did being the modern artist lover  that I am. I learned Morandi was an isolated artist. He didn't mesh with the Parisian bohemian life style that was so popular amongst artist of that  time. He ived in his home in Italy, where he shared it with his sisters...he collected bottles and vases, painted them and arranged them in different ways, used different angles of light source and also was very particular of the table cloth or back drop... at the same time looking into the spiritual.  I read it would take days/ months to decide on the "right" tablecloth or arrangement. There was something he saw in these figures, their simple shapes, the shapes created in the negative space..the color palette he chose, which are the chromatic greys( mentioned in my last post) that I love so much.
I first started taking photos of  bottles then decided to start making the bottles and vases with clay using his images as references and I painted them in a chromatic grey palette..at least I am trying to do so..I haven't yet decided exactly what I am to be doing with this...but this is the beauty of the PROCESS for me. I am not trying to hurry myself. I just have to keep exploring.
This was my lesson for the summer. I am still trying to practice it...Patience and Discipline have been friends this summer. I hope to continue a healthy relationship with them for the rest of my Life career.
