Joseph Burchfield

Artist Statement: Painting the material world is drawing combined with color. A painting has these simultaneous aspects of awareness, feeling, and subjectivity that create a unity of experience for the viewer. Creating a record of interpreting these objective sensations provides improvisational choices needed to drive innovation and change. This action lets invention be in the service of composition, forming a relation between drawing, color and observation. A sketch any time is dandy and fine. A drawing is great with color and paint. And stories are best for dreaming the rest. It's where you draw the line. web site: https://sites.google.com/site/paintingdrawing/
