The fattest of the four sits on the left side of the painting. Two slightly skinnier ones sit side by side toward the right. The skinniest one sits even farther to the right, and it is broken up by swatches of gray. Above the the vertical lines on the right, in the upper right corner, sits a grid of nine black dots. Linear washes of orange and green create contrast with the painting on the left while a small square of pink in the painting on the right unifies them., Symbiosis 1& 2; (29 x 35.5 x .5 ea.); 8-96; dry pigment, enamel, gold leaf, varnish on aluminum, Tom Anderson was born in 1951 in Salt Lake City, the son of a jazz musician.

He returned in 1987, on a scholarship with Susan Stinsmuhlen-Amend, and again in 1988 and 1989 as a teaching assistant in the advanced graduate program, specializing on glass casting and enamel kiln firing. In 1990, Anderson established his own studio in Olympia. Over the past eight years he has continued his work painting, metal fabrication, mixed media constructions, and printmaking.
