It was stated best by Agnus Martin that from music - people accept emotion, but from art they demand explanation, and this is true. It's because the emotion of the artist, the instant of creation that comes together on the canvas is a series of fleeting moments in the life of that artist that can be difficult for the viewer to grasp just by looking, it's rarely obvious.....
"Wild Earth is an image I composed of texture and warm colors that combine to create an atmosphere of beauty and serene peace. The circles that coalesce in green fields of texture. It's earthy richness sets the tone for the work. I know the painting not only needed the earth tones, it needed the reds moving into the greens and the green colors disappearing into the airy gold and white."

"I was looking for an breezy lightness to the textures, I wanted a place for the gentleness of warm colors to collide with the darker, richer hues which inevitably would echo them. It's like a symphony to me; it's boldness of the "music" rolls into the gentle warmth of the atmosphere, the colors start to meld into each other, they merge and melt into each other and slowly over the surface of the canvas they become one."
"I wanted the textures of this piece to move with the paint, I didn't want them to be the subject of the piece, I needed them to be more a part of the background of the image. I'm never sure if I have accomplished my goals when I work since it's hard to nail down exactly what I'm after when I begin.
Often, all I have is a series of faint images that are floating around my mind, they are hard to put directly on canvas since the texture and the paint often dictates what I do next. I'm not after groundbreaking work, I'm not looking to put a bullhorn to the ear of my viewer and shout at them about politics. I'm only after that which is beautiful and nothing else. This piece seemed to do that for me, it seemed to know what I was looking for and appeared in front of me....it was almost like - - magic."

More about the artwork:
Pictured below is the installed hanging hardware which is a heavy-duty metal D-Ring attached to the kiln dried canvas stretchers. The canvas is heavy-duty, gallery-wrapped, back stapled and tucked. It is one of the best quality canvases on the market without having the added expense of custom created surfaces that are ready to paint. It is archival quality, so it ages well. The painting is lightly varnished and beautifully finished.
