"Cosmos 8"


Jay Rolfe completed a new painting this morning, "Cosmos 8." It is small for Rolfe's paintings, 18" x 24" x 1.5". Today's photo is of him painting the stars on it.

Artists could call the process of painting the stars on this painting "process" art. That is, the artist removes himself (!) from the decisions of where to place the stars and lets the Universal force decide where his hand goes. It is true that Jay Rolfe didn't have a preconceived notion of where to put the stars, but let the feeling come over him. Does that make his paintings more valuable since the Universal force helped paint his painting of the universe, "Cosmos 8"? Would you pay more knowing this?

Artist with "Cosmos 7"



Today artist Jay Rolfe took photos of many recent paintings. Today's photo shows him with his 18" x 24" painting "Cosmos 7." Rolfe enjoys creating paintings of the infinite cosmos, the night sky to most of us. He's particularly fond of the color of the cosmos paintings, although the camera doesn't quite capture it accurately.
