When I look at the world, I see surfaces and the meeting points between them.
I paint to enter that interior and find meaning in what reflects back to me, to bridge the gap between what I see and my inner experience. To me, that is as true of nature as it is of still life or even my own reflection in the mirror – all of which surprise equally.
I am more interested in the mood, the moment, than in the objects themselves... and then, the new representation itself becomes a new beginning.
