My greatest aspiration
in life is to comprehend,
and through
my art,
to portray the essential
ingredient, the life
and light
that exists
in and propels everything
and everyone. My
paintings
are a product of this
goal.
In a flower, the
way the light makes
the delicate petals
translucent. How they
seem to dance, their
beautiful colors
belying
their evanescence.
The delicate wings
of an insect,
the
magnificent moments
caught between life
and death.
First here,
and then gone...
In various views
from my apartment
windows, I am intrigued
by several things.
The ethereal, transparent,
ever changing
quality
of the sky against
the solid silhouettes
of man-made
buildings.
And how the city turns
magic in the evening
when
building windows
sparkle like rectangles
of golden orange
jewels.
As
I look inside the
nearest windows
of my neighbors, and
paint them, I get
fleeting views of
people moving about,
sitting
at desks,
reading, dancing,
talking to each
other, exercising,
and I am reminded
that I am surrounded
by another form
of
nature: the
human kind.
