I guess, to most, it looks like I am painting clouds, but that's really not the case. I chose clouds as the vehicle so that I can paint the underlying luminosity and work with the abstractive qualities. The simplicity of the land/sky format allows me to enjoy the complexities of the concept. That's the closest I can come to an explanation.
