Hal Singer

"The flatness of the tidal wetlands, and the unusual quality of light have a profound affect on me, and consequently on my work."

"I paint what is of immediate personal significance, regardless of existing trends."

“I find pleasure in introspection rather than being swept up in the neurotic fury of contemporary society, and incorporate this in my work."

"If there is any ideal expressed in my work, it is that of the freedom to be contemplative and capable of living with oneself and with unspoiled nature—
to seek out the luxury of spacious privacy."
