Travelin'

New painting:18 x 24, acrylic on linen. Images and pours intersect as emblems of full and empty space. In this painting memories of places and their media images yield a mode of realization dictated through touch, whereas my physical presence in a particular place might inspire a more direct, even literal image. This re-enacts Chinese ideals that studio painting synthezes internal and external sensations, as a studio art. But whether in the landscape or observing it through projections and photographs, the idea is to move through painting, fusing image and gesture in the glances of passersby.
