In Robed Figure, Diaz depicts a cloaked person walking while holding wheat, set against a backdrop of harvest-like yellow. His unplanned process allows his artistic impulses to reveal connections with the natural world. As he explains, "The canvas is the site where I work things out. I go to a canvas with no preconceived notion. Am I going to paint an interior? Am I going to paint a landscape? Is it going to be a person?”
