I painted this here in California at a time when a raging fire was threatening the nearby area. At times the sky was purple and brown even in the daytime so it was an influence on my chosen color palette. In my landscapes change and transition are foremost in my mind. The light is either dawning or setting, the foreground is an odd juxtaposition to the background and the viewpoint is uncertain. In this case the lily is in three stages, budding, blooming and fading; the moon is either waxing or waning; and to me that expresses the ephemeral nature of any passing moment. As always the image is built up of thin oil glazes over a red undercoat.

I was born and brought up in Boston, Massachusetts. I can't remember a time when I didn't have a pencil in my hand and a pad of paper to draw on. I've never imagined being anything but an artist, although there was a time after graduating college that i had to wait for my ideas to come of age. Although I'm a native of the East Coast, after working in Santa Barbara since 1976 and the California light, colors, and aesthetic has been the strongest influence on my work. I categorize my paintings as Contemporary California Realism.
