Guatemala, dream space, New Mexico. Place is becoming critical. Places also have their stories, built into layers.
I traveled to Mexico and Guatemala in 1990, and found myself walking around the streets of my dream painting from the previous year. One Possible Cairo was also from a dream. Painting dream space is one of the most difficult things to do. By the end of 1993 I was beginning to think about my next move, and Santa Fe was on the short list.
