landscape, n.All

The Landscape thinks itself in the artist and the artist is its consciousness.

Landscape does not exist in its own right since its appearance changes at any moment.

Landscape is an intensely visual idea, viewed from one spot where the viewer is outside. Places are things to be inside of.

Landscape is like a piece of music, when fine. It must be taken at the right tempo.

Landscape is often no longer only geographic but also biographical and personal.

The Landscape is not the locus of any lurking true secrets, but only undisclosed evidence, waiting for us. No true chaos is in the urban scene, but only patterns and clues waiting to be organized.

Landscape is hardwired into our psyche. It touches our emotions, experiences we've had, and gives a sense of place.

The Landscape becomes human, becomes a thinking, living being in the painter.
