Voice of the Path: Psychological Landscapes
ONE MAN SHOW
February 14, 2004 - March 14, 2004
I am a fourth generation Californian, born on the cusp of the New
World in El Pueblo de Nuestra Senora la Reina de Los Angeles de
Parciuncula (also called Los Angeles). Currently I divide my time
between living in New Orleans and the coastal jungle of Mexico.
These pictures are painted there in the daytime, under the sky and
trees, in the open air at the edge of the sea.
I think of them as religious paintings. The subject matter is
elementary, the basics – Earth, water, fire, air, squares, triangles,
circles, moments, energy, in various stages of assembly into those
primary concerns: House, sky, tree, sun, moon.
Some of these pictures may look back at you with an
invitation/reminder to open your eyes and part the curtains, and
remember who is looking at who.
The intoxicating nature of color makes a sensual pursuit of the
attempt to depict the spontaneous symphony of atoms rushing to
their appointments, caught in the act of forming a psycho landscape
of perk and peril, a raveling ball of terror and treasure.
Cupped in color and nestled in high velocity neighborhoods, currents
and cross currants of energy, bound to their certain frequencies, meet
at the intersection of motion and emotion where formerly unseen
possibilities are taking shape.
