About the artwork:

I spent the summer of 2006 on a beautiful hilltop in southern France, surrounded by lush views and plenty of nature. My abstract paintings have been heavily influenced by my panoramic surroundings as well as my up-close observations of plants and insect life. I have termed my new series of nature-based abstracts my Anicca series. Anicca is a Pali term meaning impermanence. Like the Impressionists, I am deeply influenced by the changes in the scenery around me caused by the changing position of the sun and atmospheric changes such as wind, rain, and fog. These paintings depict the ever-changing quality of nature; its unpredictability, raw form, and constant flow. This painting depicts a whimsically abstract landscape writhing with color and energy. This piece expresses the concepts of growth, life, and change. This piece expresses the concepts of growth, life, and change. Many shades of blue are used to express the fresh flow of rivers throughout the landscape. A high horizon is topped with a jubilant yellow sun. Certain elements can be interpreted as the leaves of plants as well as roots growing in the soil. The colors and designs of this piece whimsically express a feeling of springtime, with clear blue skies and blooming flowers.
