Building upon the history of observational landscape painting, I considered its relevance in an age of time-based media, mass imagery and instant information. Embracing human limitations, I explored the complexities of first-hand experiences. Outside, there is so much information and many variables beyond my control. How do these observations enhance my understanding and attune my senses to the nuances of this scene? Standing in the same spot, I painted this space again and again. With each noticeable change in its appearance, I began a new panel. I could not and did not want to capture every detail. I was interested in shape shifts within my subject, as well as the immediacy of my response. Sustained engagement through painting allowed me to be open and ready to respond to the unexpected. The individual panels are then installed chronologically as a singular piece: an archive of my engagement with a perpetually fluctuating environment.
