"For Igor Stravinsky’s most iconic and controversial composition, I choose to focus on the promise of spring, the freshness of the new bloom, and the waking of the earth to the possibilities of new life.

The removed sections or tracks across the canvas show the colors of spring promised—greens, yellows, blues, more frantic and energetic at the bottom fading into a silvery pearlescent sky.
