Poppy Copper Dot Heart
This is one of my favourite, recent images from the
Spark Project. In many ways, it shares many attributes with my recent paintings. It's titled Poppy Copper Dot Heart. And, just as an aside,
Dot Heart is a translation of Dim Sum. In its finest form, Dim Sum is a repast filled with little morsels meant to delight the heart. And, it's November, the month that brings Remembrance Day, the first
of our winter rains, fiery leaves and...poppies for souls past and present.

ps. these bright circles of pink paint are the work of civic surveying crews, laid down as markers for the construction and reconstruction of our city streets. I'm not sure why they always have a copper disk nailed in the centre.
