"When people go to the ocean, they like to see it all day....There's nobody living who couldn't stand all afternoon in front of a waterfall. It's a simple experience, you become lighter in weight, you wouldn't want anything else. Anyone who can sit on a stone in a field awhile can see my painting. Nature is like parting a curtain, you go into it. I want to draw a certain response like this...Not a specific response but that quality of response from people when they leave themselves behind, often experienced in nature--an experience of simple joy... the simple, direct going into a field of vision as you would cross an empty beach to look at the ocean."
---Agnes Martin
2018
My 2018 representational paintings and drawings were inspired by the extraordinary within the ordinary of everyday life, to produce a snapshot of modernity before it fades by the passing of time and to infuse beauty into the mundane and commonplace.
