Under 15 30″ x 46″ Oil on Canvas 9/2008
When I was a teenager I used to spend a great deal of time on turnpike on-ramps hitch-hiking alone to where ever I could get to, Washington, Detroit, Philadelphia, sometimes with no particular destination – just to keep moving. Over the past year I keep returning to these images of highway overpasses and on-ramps in part for my nostalgic wanderlust as well as their often overlooked monumentality.
