I love her smearing, matched by the beautiful composition and palette...mixed with a light, spontaneous painterly application. The moments of realism like the perfect woman in the back of perverts being gawked at be the streaked bulging flesh of the nude. Then only re-conceives and perhaps it is the realistic woman who is out of place and atrocious, giving the shifty eye, touching herself while wading fully clothed in the back ground, her hand illustratively outlined in black, popping from the folds of her white cotton crotch.

"This component of the painting, the face painted without depth, alludes to Byzantine iconographic space, which was reserved for holy imagery. I call the work Land Gods, because I think that this painting also reflects the multiple ways that people look at the land, as something alternately animated, sublime, or simply as real estate. All these ideas about the landscape haunt our minds any time we conceive of or look at the terrain around us. They are like ghosts... or gods."
