Artist Statement
“I am not a narrative painter. So please do not ask ‘What is it?’ I would prefer you ask ‘Why does he do this?’Working intuitively, the expression emerges from the ‘make’ and informs me as what next to do. I often physically turn my paintings, which provides a different look at composition, scale, color, expression, and content. This was not looked upon very highly in Graduate School . However I never received a reason as to ‘why not?’ I always made the decision as to which way I preferred it viewed and why. As long as it was not ‘Spin Art’ like something from the fair... ha!”
This exhibition is presented alongside the latest works from Randell Henry, Kathleen Lemoine, & Tom Richard. All works from these artists are on view, free of charge, during normal gallery hours (12 - 6 p.m., Tue - Sun) from February 1st - 24th.
