Artist Statement:
The Exploration of Line, Form,
and Color

My work constantly occupies my
mind. If it's not rapped
around the piece I'm currently
working on, then I'm thinking
about the theory, philosophy,
or history behind it.

I am in search of the image
not yet seen. Each work is a
puzzle that must be solved.
The pieces to the puzzle are
line, form, and color. The
correct application of the
pieces create a composition
that I feel effectively
express the solution to the
"Blankist" canvas.
(Please see the page titled
"Phil's Philosophy" for more
information on Blankism.)


Much of my work consists of
the representational
abstraction of heads, faces,
and figures in various
expressions, and situations.
At times these figures are
combined with free form or
geometric shapes which can
lead to total abstraction. In
this case, the subject can
only be identified by the name
of the piece.

The abstraction of the human
body has a rhythmic
familiarity and expressiveness
to me that I find difficult to
escape. I do, at times,
venture in other directions
with my work, only to return
to this subject. I will
sometimes choose the image to
produce but quite often ...
