Text Entries
The subtle surface and illusion of the artwork are influenced by the vastness of the New Mexico sky and landscape. This painting, like many of Arends’ artworks, has a dimensional form. The artist defines his work as painting, as his interests in making his work are more aligned with the optical concerns of painting rather than the massing of sculpture.
