At the two century old Coggeshell farm here in Rhode Island there are a number of outbuildings that wear their age and function like mossy old oaks in a forest. Nothing here is made to be false or evocative by design. They simply are evocative and take me quickly to another time and way of life. I am hypnotized by the textures and the play of shapes and lines creating compositions that are structured and yet richly imperfect. The colors I see in these planks just need to be coaxed up and out to tell the story of the misty morning and quietness of the landscape out of time.
