My hope is to draw the viewer into the abstract space of color, texture and form. I do not want the viewer to understand the image in one glance, but to be forced to step away and take in the mood of the canvas first and then begin to enjoy the subtly of the pattern, surface, and spatial divisions.

The space created between land and sky becomes blurred and is dominated by a sense of mystery in its abstract pattern that is ever changing and developing before our eyes.
