Nature and Landscapes
Nature untouched by human hands, unbent by human will, exists and proceeds in accordance with the wisdom of a Billion years. It is a healing force capable of calming our fevered minds. She holds us readily in her arms, feeds and sustains us and if we let go, she lets us be a part of her.
We live in a mad dream of presumed superiority and separateness, pursuing short term goals that cause long term devastation. In a landscape there is no separateness. The mountain depends on the sky and the sky depends on the mountain. The pond is there because the rocks hold the water, the leaf is placed where the light can find it. Everything is what it is, because of and only in the context of a relationship.
My paintings don't aim to abstract, comment or change their subject. They are a gift received from the source. I am just a conduit. I pass on what I receive.
