An exploration of desire in art, poetry, and prose. Friday, June 26, 2009. God Says Yes To Me. I asked God if it was okay to be melodramatic. And she said yes. I asked her if it was okay to be short. And she said it sure is. I asked her if I could wear nail polish. Or not wear nail polish. And she said honey. She calls me that sometimes. She said you can do just exactly. What you want to.

TIM McFARLANE: Artist Statement

http://timmcfarlane.blogspot.com/p/tim-mcfarlane-artist-statement.html

Art life stirred vigorously. The shifting space of memory, influenced by time, forms the foundation of content for my paintings and works on paper.
