In the Presence of Eternity
Acrylic on Canvas | 18" x 54"
"In the presence of eternity, the mountains are as transient as the clouds."
—Robert Green Ingersol
These paintings are a mixture of the accidental and the planned, reality and imagination, improvisation and study, both random and purposeful, the serendipitous and the not really by chance. Started with an intentional slash/splash and then crafted with care and abandonment. See what you can find, wander through, discover, uncover and create in your own mind.

Pregnant Moment Acrylic on Masonite | 9" x 12" Stand on the crest of the massif, what will you see? What will you hear? Do you open your eyes and ears to feast in the line of sight and mingle with the flora and fauna and the beyond? Do you open your mind and see the ever-changing hills and seas and skies? The hills are alive, moving in, from a human perspective, so slowly as to appear eternal.
Over See's acrylic on Masonite panel | 16" x 11" Reflections and refractions from paint and water, movement and pressure, both moving the painting and the land and the sea and, with a little attention, one's imagination. Where is the foreground, the background, what is sea or sky, clouds or rocks? Let your eyes and mind play through/with/about/over, even under layers of paint depicting what you will find. The viewer is right in what he/she finds, bringing the artwork to life with the knowledge gained from life's experience.
