EVENING PASSAGE
Most of the paintings in this show were painted in the evening when light and color rapidly change. Some are also a rediscovery of familiar views generated by repeated observation. They are a reflection of the passage of time with forms and images modified by light and color at different times of the day. For this show I found myself reflecting on the scenes closest to my home that have offered me unlimited compositions of color and abstract forms for almost 20 years. I challenged myself to look closely at what is around me and compare it to my past observations and wonder what it will be many years from now.
