His artist's statement in 1961 for the "Some Points of View"exhibition at the Stanford University Art Gallery is as follows: " I have always been interested in the spectacular terrain of the deserts of the West- the magnitude of the desert cliffs. In the last four years I have departed from the traditional landscape without feeling it necessary to disown my native desert subjects, without entirely becoming pure abstract or non-objective, but have taken it's advantages.
