" My transformation from an abstract artist to realist style painter happened
after seeing an exhibition of Andrew Wyeth paintings. The rural countryside
around Chadd's Ford, Pennsylvania, which Wyeth depicted, was very similar
to the area where I chose to live ... a world of traditional family farms and
scattered forests.

Here was an artist who used abstract forms in his
compositions but cared about the particularity of the actual surface
of his world. In this painting I examined the texture of the ploughed field
etched by snow and the rolling forms of the forest in winter. "
