I <br /> often do a series of works of the same subject in shifting light, seasons <br /> and weather. When painting animals, I usually document their <br /> movements in a series of works done on site and in their home <br /> environments. I visited the Antarctic Peninsula in December 2007 and in <br /> July 2009 worked in the Norwegian Arctic, As a result of these Polar <br /> experiences, I produced a large body of work on Polar animals and <br /> landscapes for the multimedia exhibition Ice Counterpoint at UNCs Fed <br /> Ex Global Education Center from January 7 through May 31 2010 and <br /> Artico, Asolo Antartico at the Asolo Civic Museum, Veneto, Italy in <br /> November 2010.
