We Have All Been Here Before

I always liked that line from the Crosby Stills and Nash song.

This past weekend I experienced an overwhelming sense of Deja Vu. So much so that I am still thinking about it today, five days later. When I had the experience (it wasn't the first time for it) I had absolutely felt like I had done it before but also that something far more dramatic and bizarre had taken place as well. Is crazy twist of an ending did not take place during this incident, but had it happened before?  I told my husband and he replied that he had just had it too, a little while earlier!  Come on!  What does this mean? Did I dream it or have we all been here before? And if we have been here before will we return again? Will each lifecycle be similar or will there be a "Sliding Door" effect? My mother believes we live on different planes but you will have to ask her about that.

Ah the things I think of while I paint.

A status report on current work of this exact time and place is that we have two larger paintings coming down the pipe. The subject matter is consistent but I'm starting to think I'm painting my own little army of clown generals and court jesters.
