Artist Statement:
How My Paintings Become
Sopwith Camels or the
High-Flying Thrills of En
Plein-Air.
I pilot a painting. Rev it up.
Get it off the ground,
something in our environment
or our humanity that I find
inherently splendid to my eye
giving it lift. Then I set it
on autopilot…in the direction
I hope it will go. I do check
the instruments—draftsmanship,
painterliness, color (paying
special attention to grays and
values), communication and
visual balance—rather
diligently. If nothing bad
happens, I relax and enjoy the
flight.
There are dangers in the
process. Those clichés of
habit and art school and
patron taste often disguise
themselves as inspiration and
try to take over the flight. I
try to prevent that from
happening. And I must
recognize when the painting
has run into a problem that it
cannot pilot through by
itself, by inspiration alone.
Then, my job is to interfere.
A little. Then hope that
inspiration, such as it is,
has not been insulted, will
not sulk, does not sputter and
quit the business. The sudden
drop in artistic altitude can
put my bowels, along with a
clog of caustic, sometimes
creative, epithets, in my
throat...
