Notice to Visitors

The undersigned wishes to inform any and all that yes, he is painting again. And yes, pieces are available.

The pieces are slow and layered. Rooted in a simple and earnest fascination with the threshold where land meets sea.

Design and teaching still occur, but at their own pace. To design is to exercise agency, to teach is to transfer agency, and to paint is to dissolve any agency and let something new emerge.

In the midst of forever wars and artificial intelligence outpacing our own moral frameworks there is still light. We can connect with the elemental twice daily at sunrise and sunset.

Is there an alchemy more pure than making images from mud and earth pigments?

There’s plenty to do. Let’s get to it.

Thanks for looking,

Ian Montgomery
