Spontaneity and intuition are the two most important concepts I’d like to convey in my art. The spontaneous underpainting gives way to an image that appears intuitively. The nature of paint is messy and I like to acknowledge that. This is a reminder that in nature, order comes from chaos.
While our mind-dominated world changes to a more feeling world, we struggle for balance. Every painting is an opportunity for me to reconnect with a more intuitive part of myself. Every viewer is given this opportunity to connect with their feelings as well. The people in my life help me to express pain and pleasure. Then in turn, I put that on a canvass to share with others. We are a world of people that want to connect by our very nature.
I paint nature often because I am a part of nature. Humans share our bodily functions with animals. The main difference is that animals have no fear of the future. They live their lives with great awareness and intuition. Their brains have not become out of balance enough to injure themselves.
