I would like to in some measure share with the
viewer that uplifting spiritual presence I sense residing in the land. I am
trying to address the aesthetic of the sublime, a glimpse of the Orderer in
His order. More than to inform, l want the viewer to be moved emotionally. Therefore,
in my pictures the compositional elements, especially value, color and line
are adjusted to embrace that harmonic sense of transcendent purpose in nature.
I want to paint scenes of a place where you think you might hear ". . . the
Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day." (Genesis 3:8)
- James R. Winn
