The View From A Mountain

Without making a single calculation the human mind looking at abstract expressionist pieces starts to make inferences as to how something was made, the material, the position of the brush, the mind of the artist. I wanted to capture this for the viewer--the hidden dimensions.

There is a majesty to this place we can only understand from this height, well above the trees, and above the moist droplets in air. How many men and women have walked these paths, and yet to the mountain we are smaller than a pebble, with lives only a little longer than the mayfly. Such contemplations are the thoughts of the cliff-sides at this height. We are small. The fog-covered trees are vast, unending, life-giving, and beautiful without limit.
