I believe that art is an argument that the artist is constantly having with himself and that art is found in the process of creation and not in the end result or product.

The surface of the painting needs to reflect this argument, this tension that exists between artist and canvas.  I rarely begin a painting knowing the direction it will take.

Creativity comes best to me when the mind is empty. With no reference save for a preferred palette of colors and a huge amount of trust in instinct, the painting begins with a single stroke or splash of color. There are no rules, there can be no formula.

Areas of Focus: Trying to get it right.
 Future: Unknown
