I paint in order to understand without explaining in words. Although words can suggest images it is the images not the explanation I am after. I work to bring the images to the surface as well as awaken to the images already on the surface. Inevitably I usually see figurative images, even in landscapes. Most of all I relish a work which offers a meaningful sense of mystery to the viewer, suggesting one thing on Monday and something new on Friday.
