"The exciting thing for me about being an artist is that on any given day you expect nothing will happen. Then, something always does! Visually that is -- first. Sometimes it's a shape against another shape. Sometimes it can be something very obtuse. But within those commonplace elements, the artist can place the highest meaning on our relationship to the earth. If he or she can present this mystery to the viewer - then 'fine art' has been reached, for form and content have been fused."
