Blast Furnance Cooling, 1960

oil painting

46 x 63 in

“My overwhelming desire as an artist through the years has been to record the beauty of man-made objects and energy of American industry on canvas. From as far back as I can recall the cityscapes, farms and the depiction of industrial power and technological efficiency has had a great attraction for me. As an artist, I have found myself drawn to and reacting to my environment. Without reservations, I find myself agreeing with my classification as an “American Precisionist,” pre-occupied with translating observations into Syncopated Abstractions, with my personal clarity and formalism. As to the subjects that attract me and impress me, rather than to present reality, I try to treat these observations with personal honesty and distill these impressions to visual order.”
