Clean sweep



If you search Google for "clean sweep" you will get 2,010,000 entries. So check those out or just trust (like I do), that these paintings are taking me closer to finding out truths to our daily existence. On an artistic level I am inspired to paint the curves of form, the linear pattern of light and the flowing edge of the brush. On a gut level, the memory of the woods I just finished painting exists here in iconic microcosm, distilled to an organic tool. We spend our whole lives accumulating things to feel full and yet perhaps the best way to prepare for inevitable death entails the graceful removal of any sense of attachment...
