Impressions of the Cosmos

To catch and ride a wave to shore, to fly above the clouds, to view the universe and dream of space travel is to feel exhilarated.  I feel that contemplating the forces of nature is a metaphor for humanity’s aspirations.  The main purpose of this series of paintings is to evoke feelings of wonder and hope by expressing in paint the power and grandeur of cosmic forces such as nebulae, galaxies and the sun, “the star we live by”.  As Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “Nature is a mutable cloud”.
