My Quest for Genius Loci
My life recently took an unexpected turn, making me question the memories of half my existence.
Painting en Plein air challenges me to discover myself and the world.
For the past few years, I have traveled extensively,
capturing the Genius Loci — the spirit, character, and atmosphere of the places I land.
In the words of Alexander Pope, British 18th-century poet…
To build, to plant, whatever you intend,
To rear the Column or the Arch to bend,
To swell the Terras, or to sink the Grot;
In all, let Nature never be forgot.
Consult the Genius of the Place in all
That tells the waters for to rise, or fall…
Joins willing woods and varies shades from shades
Now Breaks, or now directs, th’intending Lines;
Paints as you plant, and as you work, Designs.
