My current listening room (not the one posted as my "system" room which is in need of an update at this point), has two abstract paintings on the wall. The one I face directly when listening is an encaustic that shows a dark, monlolithic shape...could be a dark doorway, or could be a solid shape...from which seems to be radiating circles of light or energy...well, at least that's how I see it. It is entirely up to the viewers interpretation. The painting is by my old friend Jaq Chartier. She has since moved on to other visual syles (still abstract, and still in encaustic). Another painting I have of hers, "White Lights" appears on the Foo Fighters 1995 self-titled release, and is somewhat of a precursor to the work she's doing now. Needless to say, I am a big fan of her work. I like abstract work as it allows my mind to wander...seems somehow more akin to the way I see music in some ways.
