TRVART PROCESS: "Attention" painting VS. "Intention" painting

Transferring form from actual session works as archetypal symbols taken from staged TRV drawings was actually the first breakthrough in this new art.

As time progressed and research continued, it was discovered that the same "state" that was required for "attention" paintings, in producing the first sketch works, could actually produce canvas works without the required first staged drawings. Rather than being entered into a "bi-located" state to produce the drawings as a "map" of the canvas, a new approach that was more direct was applied: The bi-located state was actually used to produce the works, rather than the "map" of a work-to-be.

The difference between the two is immense, as "attention" paintings follow a more "linear" form in scribing symbols and symbolic work. The attempt to produce more full bodied paintings was hinged on stepping beyond lines to "delineation", where hues and or tone or color differences created a sharp contrast much like a line, but had body to their form, rather than "lines".

"Intentional" paintings are straight onto the canvas in a bi-located state. Both types demand autonomic skills to be led by unconscious thinking and followed. Both demand the autonomic skills of the motor nerves as well as a true "sensing" and direction by both mind and skills built over a period of time.

Yet one embraces a "blop" of paint in form as a symbol (intentional), the other remaining in symbolic line form (attention and transferred to the canvas).

"Intentional" TRV ART is a kinesthetic process, equal to the staged drawings of the "attention" state necessary in session work, but entails holding the "idea" of the subject "in mind" and using the canvas as a "staged drawing" while in a bi-located state. It is the INTENTION of the artist that is here, present, "doing an idea, rather than watching an idea". They are done quickly, usually produced in a matter of hours, as opposed to the construction of "attention" paintings that are done from re-constructing data onto canvas from a session.

It must be considered that they are both so unique in their form that neither takes away from the other, but rather are two realized forms heading in the same direction. Let us look again at the physical process of painting, this time as "intentional" painting. Borrowing skills based in years of painting, it is produced from "furthest to closest, adding detail" and " general mass to concise accent" as an approach.  - Click here to begin
