Description
As you have undoubtedly noticed, I do not label my work or, for that matter, write a description. I have done this in the past. I soon realized, however, that this directed the viewer and steered them in one particular direction or another. As I have evolved as an artist, I have let go of the need to do this as I want the witness to have more control over what they see and, as a result, what they feel. It is feelings and emotions that I wish to evoke. As such, if labels, phrases, explanations are present, these curtail such an experience, and I have lost the possibility of an intimate connection with a viewer.

Jeremiah, Love what you're doing in your description... This work may not fit the guidelines for SH, tho we'd love it in the ACL Art CHANGES Lives groups... Bring awareness to the IMPACT of description in titles... FAB! Hoping you will kickoff a Discussion in ACL. Thank YOU for sharing, Admin, GJ glorijean

Thank you for letting me know, GJ. My other work, which is similar, though entirely ink-based, is based on my testicular cancer journey. So I will be aware in the future. Thank you again!
