I find painting goes beyond
the notion that painted
reality is “nothing but “ a
precursor to a photographic
realism. Painting is a

There is a synthesis between
the visual and the kinesthetic
that forms a powerful third
range of human perception.

I find painting goes beyond the notion that painted reality is “nothing but “ a precursor to a photographic realism. Painting is a phenomenological experiment. There is a synthesis between the visual and the kinesthetic that forms a powerful third range of human perception. Human space and form are not purely optical manifestations. The painting of mass and line can provoke a muscle sense, a physical ness between viewer and the painted relationships. Hans Hoffman called this “Push-Pull”.
