with the trees ....

when finishing my mfa degree, i lived in the woods of northeast pennsylvania and often drew and painted the trees around me.
in the jerusalem series, i used walls, windows, doors, and alleyways as components in architectural compositions that either invited or blocked a viewer's access to the spaces depicted.

as i recently returned to trees as a subject, i seem to have merged these two earlier directions.

when painting forest scenes and pathways, i find myself repeatedly creating paths through the woods (or occasionally, an impenetrable wall of trees).

i am unsure where this new direction is going, but i enjoy the journey.
