Out of Nowhere

                                                                          Introduction          A comet in ancient times appeared to come out of nowhere.  So also does talent or inventiveness -- or even accomplishment where it had not been seen before.  Out of Nowhere was the title of a show of the works of Jeremy Moon presented by the British artist Neil Clements at the Peer Gallery in East London in 2016.          Inspiration in abstract art does not come from observation of a scene.  It comes from the artist's inventiveness, hence in a sense --- out of nowhere.  We modify that by admitting that abstract artists must do much experimenting.  Please see our first painting by Moon.  He is clai...
