The painting itself is really an artifact of a visual language that arranges and rearranges. When the composition is complete it stays as such until it physically begins to deteriorate.
Just as a song is written, the painter must begin with that glimpse, something you thought you heard (saw). Something heard next to something different. Something seen-(imagined) touching down the composition to start.
