This one is infused with mystery and wonder – who is the blue pilgrim? What are those choices he’s facing? Where is he in his pilgrimage?

This is one that left the studio decades ago, and I still miss today. For some reason I never entered information about it in my portfolio, and only have a photo to remember it by…

It was a rather beautiful piece (in my opinion) from the line abstracts series, painted in 1994 or 95. Here we have the singular blue figure seemingly deciding between portals to pass through… I loved the world the blue pilgrim is passing through – created by scrumbling layers of paint until it had a lustrous quality.
