Fall 2012: Artwork


A Knot Untied

Size: 42" x 42"

Medium: Oil on canvas

Artist Statement:
About these paintings: The fundamental organ. I cannot separate the organ from the bone. There is no story. Color, line, movement are all without thought. I find you in everything. I write to myself and I am writing to you. Now I feel hunger. I am your second half, third, and fourth. There is no whole. My only hope is that if I keep creating looser, bigger, more, that the understanding will reveal itself. It will become real, more full for its lack of interpretation.
