"Bright open areas are split by spreading tree forms that reach toward each other and curve away like thoughts opening to ideas, developing into personalities and ideologies. Only when we realize we are a part of Nature can Nature teach us to embrace the struggle and, ultimately, elevate us beyond its reach."

Housatonic Bend, Kellogg Road
oil on canvas, 16 x 20", 2000
