On the subject of religion I know little, but through my paintings I have often tried to explore the theme, recent attempts were "Creation's Creations" and ..
In wiki god I tackle the idea of a man-made god...coming from the sky is a mechanical device that is creating, (or spraypainting?) the landscape. The landscape is a broken, bipolar contradiction in terms... stormy on the left and serene on the right.
The broken landscape theme is one I have used in many paintings... here you can see that the horizon is a little lower on the left, not quite joining up with the horizon on the right hand side. This idea was a product of the doodleism style, my notes often contained miniature landscapes which I would paste together into larger scenes. In this case I decided to do it on purpose, to make some kind of statement... I'll leave it to the critics.
