Why I paint what I paint, the power of place

             Contrary to human designs and the human will to tame and change the environment, here in our city of Seattle nature is still visible, still audible, still reasserting itself.  In this seemingly unending conflict between people and their environment there are places here in this city where beautiful trees and flora still stand and rise in profusion and the old houses just peek out behind the old growth. It is this beauty, this interaction and this dance that, as on a breeze, calls to me and the play of light that results is entrancing.
