'American Landscape Photography' A comment on our culture's obession with self. America intially proudly differentiated itself from Europe by embracing the vast landscape. Now we ignore it, preoccupied with selfish interests, even though the land and climate are screaming out at us. Flesh and artiface are worshiped as the new landscape. The consequences of that may be dire. A theme 15 years ahead of its time. The tornado is a symbol of the dangers of ignoring the environment, the couple is engaging in narcissistic pursuits. Some paintings take forever to finish, this painting I began in 1990 and reworked many times, most recently in 2007. It has been almost entirely repainted. The trick is to keep to the same vision and style I originally intended yet with some improvements, otherwise the whole painting would have to be reinvented. | ||
