"The painting 'Spring!' (Marsh Wren) has little to do with time or this amazing creature. It is about a sense of place and my response to it; And the problem of how to convey my feelings to the viewer on a subconscious level. It is about 'space' and success hinges on the paintings ability to entice the viewer, to an exact location both in and in front of the full-size piece. When drawn to the subject in the lower part of the composition, the upper boundary has been placed just beyond our peripheral so the sky seems to go on forever. This is a feeling I experience when visiting the wetlands"."; str2="
