I’ve been painting lines on and off for more than 30 years. I sought to avoid any revelatory eureka moments until I bent the line. The flat line and linear compositions have evolved to a new geometry. Right angles and three dimensional spaces have been revealed underneath. The black and white reality of pattern making has given way to the full color life of events that do not remain invariant. Even in adhering to right angles, specified transformations never dictate the outcome. Instead, the principles of the geometric properties have no vision of the resulting composition. I break the rules of perfection and mathematics seeking the moment before purity was tainted and hopefulness was blunted.
