Description: This landscape piece is divided into two sections. However, the two sections seamlessly represent the same view of the landscape. No overly apparent distinctions between the two sections exists, except that the sun rests low on the horizon in the section on the right. The earch is rendered in a deep red against black, silhouetted trees. The Oregon Arts Commission has ten Regional Arts Councils that provide delivery of art services and information.

Biographical Information: (2000) Statement for my painting in Grayson Hall The motif used in my painting now hanging in Grayson Hall at the University of Oregon in Eugene is from an Oregon rustic landscape at sunset with a crescent moon. I chose a landscape as a timeless theme and with a sense of a historical background. The painting was derived from a sketch. While working on this painting "Oregon Landscape," the painting became a metaphor for landscape itself The finished painting does not directly lead back to the original sketches, which only remain as a reminder. I am constantly striving to express my emotional and intellectual feelings in my art, as well as to exhibit how color, form and line can be used as a means of expression. My intention is to objectify the subjective. Throughout the painting process, I discovered a new landscape that emerged, which seemed to express this intention. Upon its completion, the painting became an independent subject and this was a feeling of fulfillment.
