Art of Action Work:

The Great Wall of Vermont

40"h x 60"w - acrylic and latex enamel on wood

Each generation of Vermonters as well as recent transplants wishes that they might keep the rural character of the State as fresh and unencumbered as they remember it. To close the door behind them and keep the rest of the world at bay is a tempting solution, even if unrealistic. This painting responds to that urge to wall off this peaceful, unspoiled landscape and to protect it from the forces that would develop it to look like anywhere else in the country.
