“When I am in my painting,
I’m not aware of what I’m doing.”
When aware of what I am in my painting,
I’m not aware
When I am my painting,
I’m not aware of what I am
When what, what when, what of, when in,
I’m not painting my I
When painting, I am in what I’m doing,
not doing what I am
When doing what I am, I’m not in my painting
When I am of my painting,
I’m not aware of when, of what
Of what I’m doing, I am not aware,
I’m painting
Of what, when, my, I, painting,
in painting
When of, of what, in when, in what,
painting
Not aware, not in, not of, not doing,
I’m in my I
In my am, not am in my, not of when I am, of what
Painting “what” when I am, of when I am,
doing, painting.
When painting, I’m not doing.
I am in my doing.
I am painting.
