Thoughts
I am frequently struck by the sheer beauty of the people, objects, and scenes
which surround us every day....
The COLORS..... The Inescapable, Cornflower BLUE of a July day.....
The YELLOW & GOLD floating just above the atmosphere and filtering down upon the pavement.....
The RED of a perfect tomato....The GREEN of the lettuce which accompanies it....
These simple, ordinary things.....
They delight ....
SHAPE.....FORM.....MATTER....
All of them inform me, in no uncertain terms, that God, indeed, exists.....
And so.....humbly, I attempt to somehow impart that MAJESTY which I experience to YOU....the
viewer of my paintings...
My hope is that the work will perhaps move you in some way.... as the objects I'm attempting to
depict, indeed, move me...
They are certainly sprinkled with my sense of irony ,metaphor ,and pure allegory....
If anything on the canvas resonates with you somehow, whether it be disconcerting, pleasing, or
simply familiar, then I've done my job...
Enjoy, and God Bless,
Toby
