Artist's Statement
I
grew
up
in a
house
of
optical
phenomena
.
My
father
was a
physicist
with a
specialty
in
optics
(although
neighbors
claimed
he
worked
at the
Optical
Department
at
Sears)
.
Lasers
,
lenses
,
prisms
, and
holographs
were
plentiful
; as were
lessons
on the
natural
world
. In
our
house
, a
solar
eclipse
became
a
graduate
level
seminar
. On
long
car
trips
,
we
passed
the
time
with
questions
to
stump
Dad
:
Why
was the
sky
orange
, what
caused
hail
, and how were
tunnels
built
under
the
bay
?
(Incidentally
,
we
refer
to these
questions
now
as '
Tunnel
Talk
'
questions).I
begin
my
paintings
with
questions
like
those of '
Tunnel
Talk
'
times
. What
is
the
color
of
amber
,
iron-ore
,
pollen
? How
can
wind
and
water
be
suggested
? The
paintings
gradually
grow
in
layers
. In the
strata
of
paint
, the
shape
of a
microscopic
protein
hovers
beneath
a
planet's
elliptical
orbit
and
decorative
ironwork
cancels
out
dense
foliage
.
It
is
these
strange
alliances
between
the
common
and
uncommon
,
natural
and
synthetic
that
I
find
compelling
to
paint
. The
compressions
,
connections
, and
contradictions
of the
layers
shape
the
personality
of the
painting.This
knotted
,
painted
combination
forces
a
continual
shift
of
attention
among
the
many
levels
.
I
compare
this to a
single
moment
in
landscape
and the
competing
levels
of
activity
.
When
I
stand
on
Devonian
limestone
on the
levee
of the
Mississippi
, the
barges
and
riverboats
pass
,
herons
fly
,
behind
, a
train
noisily
rumbles
and
streetlights
flicker
on, the
smell
of
diesel
fuel
drifts
in
while
rain
clouds
build
.
It's
the
density
of
experience
that
continues
to
raise
questions
and
excite
me
as a
painter
.
