I think about recall, your signature, your face, your childhood bedroom, what you can see when you close your eyes. I started trying to memorize the sunset in 2003. My first objectives were simply to translate the spectrum differences between sunsets and sunrises in different atmospheric conditions to pigments and digital color. As the years went on I would sit in my studio, facing east, at nautical sunrise, and try to recall the how it looks...as if the wall in front of me didn't exist, the buildings all the way to the sea.
