Clearing
As with most of my paintings, I began this with a decision about color palette and materials. I wanted to approach this as I would a drawing, using graphite as well as elements of texture and paint, etc. I was reaching for a feeling of space and light; soon a suggestion of landscape emerged. I kept the colors minimal and let the conversation continue. That conversation, always between me and the marks on the canvas, is a back and forth until a satisfying balance is reached — a conclusion, if you like.
