This is about as expressive as I get. It's so hard for me to be wild and gestural. I like it neat. While working on these pieces I was thinking of my experience there, in Xinjiang province, the people, the colors, old town Kashgar, and imagined the shapes and lines I saw. The painting above is not so literal, but the two below are.

The two paintings above are my literal paintings. I took a view of
Karakul Lake and simplified and stylized it. The fig painting is a remembrance of the amazing yellow figs we ate there. They had yellow skin and the meat was an orange/pink color, really beautiful, and really delicious.

Here's Eamon's
try at doing a painting like
Abdukadir Dilmurat. He received a lot of color and mixed them in his own way. One year olds can be quite expressive!
