Line and color permeate everything.

The American artist Brice Marden once observed that emphasizing the horizontal aspect of a painting represented a landscape and the vertical emphasis, a figure. I guess I bought into that argument and my work reflects this fundamental proportion based concept.

Sensory phenomenon are an enigma for me. Ordinary events: shadow, light, movement, that I experience and interpret as part of a constantly changing mental, visual and physical environment, sometimes seem out of context with expected reality--just plain wierd. I interpret commonplace events and forms as beautiful and profound. The broad, flat farm fields of the midwest, I think, were among the first ordinary vistas to impact my senses in this extraordinary way. It is, however, an interpretation that has served me well. I desire to share it with others, in art--perhaps if only to verify my own reality, my own sanity.
