"To Dust"

1999, oil on canvas - 37x77"

         This painting for me is about accepting my own mortality and making peace with it. But it is also about psychological change. Long held ideas and beliefs about God, myself and the world are slowly giving way to new ones. "The seed can not grow until it first falls to the ground and dies."
