Painting of the Day, December 6, 2011

I see the world in terms of a balance between cosmos and chaos. Painting for me is the process of continually seeking, and attempting to work out, that balance. I don't feel it necessary for viewers to "know" my personal symbols in order to feel that my work -- if it is successful in blending chaos and cosmos into a beautiful whole -- has a spiritual base.  – Clay Wagstaff
