It is a joy to work on paper as a way to discover new aspects to my painting process. These studies help me to develop a broader painterly language. There is no plan when I begin a work. This is intentional in order to strengthen intuitive faculties, which is beautifully and playfully expressed in the Arcade Fire song, Wasted Hours, The Suburbs, 2010 

 

'The wind it takes you where it wants to go.'  

 

Artist Statement.

I paint landscapes on the verge of recognition. Horizon lines and representational tropes are assigned then interrupted in parts by an abstract language that toggle the viewpoint from vista to pure mark making. I need both control and chance as a dual strategy that conforms to, then confounds my expectations.

 

The image pictured here is P8.2025. I have five new prints available which come in 3 sizes. They are signed limited edition prints which can be found on my shop page.
