Whatever the subject, I think ultimately all my paintings are about light.

Sure, it may be about light, but it also seems to tell a story-- or at least to evoke a sense of 'place'...
Thanks Jason, I appreciate that.
I often think the same thing. The subject is a good framework for painting the light.
I can go to the same spot and paint again and again. The subject stays the same, it is the light that is different every time. (or my mood)
Hi Frank--so true. For many people, "meaning" in a representational work resides only in subject matter. That is a narrow and simplistic view.
Artists recognize subject as a pretext--the launching point for a variety of formal and emotional explorations. The range of associations and meanings that a good painting can convey may ultimately have very little to do with the thing depicted.
I love the way the light gives the feeling of freshness--it feels like early morning to me!
Thanks, Vicki.
