A Difference of Opinion

You can say so much with so little. I don't mind the dense, thick imagery in the still life and interior paintings of the masters from centuries past. There is so much to learn and understand in those paintings. For me, living in today's world, I'm experimenting with simpler images, with a simpler narrative. We live in such a media and image crazy culture, so I'm giving a quiet message with my work. There's enough screaming and yelling going on elsewhere. Painting is a respite from it all.

Threes. It's something that happened without any real consideration or conscious decisions. Over the last year or so, I started painting horizontal compositions. Perhaps because they are "read" from left to right, as the titles suggest, moving your view across the surface of the painting. Whatever the case is, I like the rhythm it creates.
