hi don, first of all let me tell you i have breathed a great big sigh of relief that you received your address book. the post office is not all bad.
as to 'untitled' i use a numbering system to keep track of the work and sometimes i use untitled as the name. however recently i have been using titles but the paintings are large and seem to command an identity. the titles are personally meaningful but tell the viewer nothing ie. a large red painting is called 'the gift'. all of them are non-representational. one thing i do is name the series that i am working on. it is difficult even for me to say what the paintings are about since they are worked on over a period of months and ones ideas and feelings shift over time. but like yourself i am not much into helping the viewer, either they get it or not. very bests, carol :) Don Boyd wrote: > Carol, what was your answer?
