Uptown

I guess I cannot get away from my love of maps. Those images invade my painting. I used to sell maps for Delorme, publisher's of the iconic Maine Atlas and Gazetteer. I'd be on the road selling store to store. At the end of the day I'd land in some town, find a cheap motel and settle in for the evening. I always grabbed a couple of maps off my van to study before bedtime. Explore the lay of the land around me, plan my route for the next day, see where all those lines go. Drive down the back roads in my mind's eye.
