Light is the protagonist of Pools and Reflections. The paintings portray a moment in a specific place when the interplay of light, water, air, ground, and body coalesce. The time I have spent by the river, on the sea looking at water led me to start to paint knee deep in the Delaware and Florida Bay, and the bath and pool works are deeper immersions into that research. Poolscapes depict the landscape as seen by the swimmer as his eyes break the surface of the water. One eye looks above the water, one eye looks below and the waterline melds both worlds.
