About this work I see a path as a route etched into a surface that reinforces itself with every follower and seems to stretch eternally beyond the horizon. These aspects of a path–its allure and depth–have always fascinated me. Of course, I consider the metaphysical aspects of a path, what it means to have and follow one, how a path can be enjoyed, interrupted, embellished, or abandoned, all of which can occur despite the ambiguity of a destination. In this way, a path is process. I attempted to convey these ideas in these large- scale landscapes. The first paintings are about the depth, mystery, pleasure, and camaraderie along a path’s journey.
