Adam ate the forbidden fruit. It took generations for the current knowledge to evolve. As we moved away from “Dark Ages” the skies brightened and finally, an explosion and a full clarity of all things.
Artist Statement: When it comes to predicting the future I am optimistic, despite the turmoil that exists in our world today, I believe and hope that the future is bright. The past eras have been sort of “in the dark”, and the new Post Modern era, the age of technology, information, computers and communications, is our bright future.
Artist Statement:
This type of scenery occurs during the autumn season. Most of the hot and cold vibrant colors are present. Trees that have changed color are reflected in the area known as “The Pond”. The Reflections series was inspired by Color and Movement. Created by observing water movement that resulted from a mild wind blowing across the pond.
