In painting I typically sit down to a blank canvas with intentional presence and a clear mind, which allows a spontaneous flow of line and color to lead the way. Other times, curious and intriguing visions emerge which I sketch or explore further through painting. The times I venture into painting with a vision or particular view of realism, the inspirations often metamorphose into images quite different from my initial intention. The process led by prevailing subconscious adaptations, are some of my most meditative, peaceful & content places to be in solitary time…So important in my life, and wonderful to share with others who see into what I do.
