"A deployment of striation and a continuation of texture manipulation work to mark moments in time as they unfold before the artist. The paint drips less in this decade than in the eighties for Fahey, his control over the paint becomes more deliberate rather than experiment. There is a certainty in the composition and a musicality in the color palette at hand. And as always, whether he is working acrylics on canvas or on paper the choice and use of color to accomplish what the muse suggests is direct and succinct with the muse's demands of the artist."
