ARTIST'S STATEMENT
I am a formalist. I am fascinated by what paint will do, whether poured, dripped, tossed, scraped, polished, sanded, brushes, guided or pushed. When I am working (I work on a table) there is a lake of paint around my art. I guide it and alter it as seems necessary, but always the paint does its own thing. Watching paint dry is not boring at all!
In this current presentation titled 9 Sequence Series, there is as much carving as painting. I have been making paintings for more than 40 years and this body of work is as strong as any I have achieved.
