After 16 years of working with photomontage and wood sculptural constructions, I decided to return to painting and use nature as a source for metaphors. In the history of art only recently have natural elements been employed as “stand alone” topics for art. My interest in Earth, Air, Fire, Water is an outgrowth of my farm upbringing and our closeness to the forces of nature as they related to growth and destruction.
