Paintings

Tour Stop 4:
Silverwood Farm & Studio

Art, to me, is primarily about the process. It’s my reaction both to the world and to the marks I am making on the canvas. The finished product becomes a record of my process.

I may find inspiration in a figure, a landscape, music, or the bits of images and thought that swirl in my head. Regardless of how I begin, the work evolves beyond my initial plan. The act of painting is improvisational. As I work, each new move comes as a reaction to the one before. I can’t tell you exactly what I’ll do next until I’ve finished the current stroke. Although I consider these elements as I work, the act of painting is often spontaneous and unstructured. It’s a conversation, where I enjoy the twists and turns of the interaction rather than worrying about where I’ll end. What is left, the final painting, is a chronicle of my process, of that conversation between my intuition and the materials.
