Go To Meeting With Larry Seiler- Session 1

      Premise…
                 Painterly realism or the suggestive invites the 
                 viewer to engage the work and participate in 
                 the narrative actively.  With its poetic brushwork 
                 and elusive nature (what some critics might refer 
                 to as the “unfinished look”) the painting borrows 
                 from the viewer’s own life experiences to read 
                 between the lines. In their reflection, frequent 
                 studying…their own imagination is called into 
                 action making them in a sense a co-creator to 
                 the work.
