Artist Statement
“Field of Sky” speaks to Larry’s Pandemic experience and emotions; it was taken on a flight to Toronto in August of 2021, just before the Delta variant hit. It was Larry’s first flight since the pandemic began and it was a moment of hope and possibility. This image speaks to those emotions as well Larry’s interest in the intersection between photography and painting, specifically colour field painting.
