denver, colorado







inquired


Inquired. Inquired? Why did I choose to title the show inquired?

There are times when a direction of artistic pursuit is chosen and it gradually develops over time. This has been my pattern. Conversely, there is a time to alter that direction in a more radical manner. Currently, I reside the in the latter.

The particular word ‘inquired’ was taken from the book of Joshua, chapter one. The context is that they ‘inquired of the Lord’. I am doing the same; inquiring of the Lord regarding the direction of my artwork. Inquiring about that direction to pursue regarding the ideas that are in my head.

This has been my theme recently. This exhibit is a subtle move to incorporate those ideas. The joy of exploration.
