ARTIST STATEMENT:
I have come to realize that "path following" is
a compelling and provocative process for
me. The passage of time, the filtering of
light and shadows, the meditations that percolate
through my mind when I walk have all become
parts of my personal documentation.
I walk often, in all kinds of weather and
in all kinds of places. I have built an extended
series of works, including three 25', scrolls
with oil sticks on paper, tracking my perambulations.
I want my work to convey the joys and insights
that I internalize when I walk, my paths
and experiences to be anybody's roads.
I paint in oil on canvas and I work in oil
sticks on panel or on 140 lb watercolor paper.
I work from photographs and from life.
