the little grey cat, looking out into the world? i wanted to get closer but i was afraid that she might just get up and run back into the barn. i looked at her for a long time, wondering how her view might be. the cat, the barn,the black doors, the red car, the sunlight - all these layers melt together into a timeless image. or maybe it's more the idea of a timeless image. the barn cat and the red pick-up truck remind me of a 'perfect' world in the middle of last century, a life without the struggles of today's demanding world. a slower pace.
yes, this is it. an image that allows one to contemplate, allows the mind to travel, to wonder, to imagine. the cat is observing and so is the cat's observer. both caught in time.
