The extent of my planning is starting with a border and. center. location.
Now where you go from there is you choice Once you start you can place any mark at any point
You see a start in your mind and then you go from there. When you put a mark or any
kind of a starting point you must have an end point.
You now have some repetition. You can have additional starting and ending points on a page. An error could be repeated.
How you get from point A to point B be is your choice. The shortest distance between
two points is a straight line. We are not here to make straight lines without curves and angles.
Your imagination gets all over the page.
There is some variations when you find a part of a image from another image so you repeat parts of an existing Images..
Laws of rules leave no themes for change. Discipline is boring.
I cannot paint existing items around us. I leave that to the artists.
Being self trained makes you the person in charge. If someone says I am doing something
incorrectly then tell them where to GO. Comments are interesting.
I am an angry person with control over no one. Paper and instruments are at my control.
Classical music is a necessary item.
If you wish to take a break then go write poetry.
Artfully,
Tom Yezza
Pythagoras described geometry as visual music. Music is created by applying laws of frequency and sound in certain ways.
States of harmonic resonance are produced when frequencies are combined in ways that are in unison with universal law.
These same laws can be applied to produced visual harmony. Instead of frequency and sound it is angle and shape that are combined in ways that are in unison with universal law.
Geometric shapes can be orchestrated in ways to produce visual symphonies that show the harmonic unification of diversity.
Geometric Abstraction.
Artists who use geometric structures as the compositional framework for their pictures often produce an abstract series of images based on the same arrangement. These variations on a theme explore the effects of different visual elements upon the image.

Warning: Tom Yezza's abstract graphics may cause dizziness.
Stare them down for more than a few seconds, and the images appear to breathe, detach from the canvas and
pulsate on the walls of The Heldrich's second floor Public Gallery in New Brunswick New Jersey
Most of the 31 works on display at the hotel and conference center radiate from a circular core, forming a nexus of diamond shapes that resemble dense mosaic tile patterns or Aztec rugs gone wild; other designs, particularly those in black and white, are steeped in
swirling Op-art aesthetics. Not surprisingly, Yezza cites Dutch graphic artist M.C. Escher as a seminal influence.
Yezza, a retired data processor from North Jersey, applies the patterns to paper using pen, pencil and paint, scans them and then has the designs printed onto canvas.
"It's very tedious," Yezza admits. He says it's all a matter of "balance. Balance "It's also a matter of exactitude and relentless ordering.
My mind was always with numbers and mathematics and geometry. I liked it more than I liked school. I didn't like that teacher having power over me."
In Yezza's mind, the numbers hold sway. Yezza retired from data processing in 1987 and did not plunge into the art world until several years later, but his former career clearly influences his current passion. He also writes poetry, which he posts on his Web site,

Yezza says, referring to the title of the show, year span, from 1994 to 2004. "In data processing, there are two numbers: zero and one. There was some kind of rhythm to it, and you could find it." That rhythm and the reliability of numbers seems to appeal to a man who has spent his life arranging information. Nonetheless, Yezza claims he does not map out his designs: "I let it happen," he says. " . . . Just like words come together, so do lines."
