Reality is a great woven cloth or tapestry, with each strand a timeline or individual life. I have taken the subject of my daily walk. Each walk is like a life in miniature.

I have always thought that when you go for a trip it is like a miniature life. You go away, feel that your journey is filled with infinite possibilities, like when you view your life ahead as a teenager. You experience a few things and then your trip is over sooner than you would want. In the same way each walk is a life in miniature as is each day. Perhaps life itself is just one day of some greater reality and all the lives join to create a year. These images of woven reality are like the perspective paintings I made when I was younger. I wanted to show life as some great unfolding panorama of different experiences and times that combine to create the truth.
