Overview"Two great American painters, Mark Rothko and Milton Avery, were both interested in the idea that the essence of a painting was not its illusory representation of ""reality and depth"" but instead the painting's colors and their relation to each other. Rothko thought that a painting should have no ""Representation of Reality"" at all. Just be blocks of different colors. And, while Avery agreed that Color Fields, colors and their relationship with each other, were a crucial element in a painting, he also thought paintings should have, however vague and abstract, some reference to ""Representational Reality"". In this series of abstract landscapes, I tried to find a Middle Path between ""Representational Reality"" and pure ""Color Fields"". Even though I later developed a more representational style similar to the German Expressionists, I still see my often heavily distorted representational images as opportunities for extreme use of non-representational color."
