There is always an anchor and a horizon

Not done yet...
It just occurred to me tonight that it seems a lot of paintings, whether representational or abstract include an anchor or centre of focus and a horizon, that one line that draws your eyes in and can even give you a sense of perspective, or not. 

I wasn't able to paint tonight, but did start several pieces this past weekend. Instead of canvas, I bought a few wood mounted surfaces. I like them very much. Not as sensitive and I can sand and do other treatments if I wish. Now there are four surfaces part-way done, just waiting for some inspiration to complete. I don't mind this kind of limbo.
