Artist's Statement:
"Earth to Sky; Sky to Earth" balances the abstract sensation of flight with the hard technical fact that it requires machinery to fly through the air. Enjoy the juxtaposition!

"Earth to Sky; Sky to Earth" is cantilevered on a plumb line that makes it feel ready to elevate. Feel the control and spontaneity! Travel with graphics and paint; dark and light; circles and blocks; surfaces and skies!

Most humans are earth-bound. Transparency and light, and clouds and water, and reversal of forms in "Earth to Sky; Sky to Earth" delivers the gift of being air-bound.
