Artist Statement

"In search of inspiration, I am sitting on a rock. There I question my ability, trying to find the truth in myself, as well as my work. I see, but I do not understand. Can I find the truth? I am excited -- this is my inspiration. Questions and answers -- I have to question all. These are my dreams, my loneliness, and my peace of mind. I sit and wonder -- with all of this I draw. When I look at my work, I feel like I am living on the edge of life, holding a butterfly net, trying to catch dreams as they go by -- I am a romantic."  - Donald Earley
