Like looking at a prismatic glacial mountain, the sky entwines with earth as shards of light. Background into foreground, with shapes shifting throughout, this geometric play of forms suggests an abstract landscape. Its flattened perspective and heavy texture pulls the eye from inside the picture to the surface.

New York skyscrapers are my Mt. St. Victoire of Cezanne, crystalline mountains of glass and steel. This scaffold of lines holds layers of color on color.
