“Everything that’s alive is in motion…”
When painting works, it brings life to an image. When
painting fails, it pins an image like a specimen to the canvas.
This is one of the ways I can evaluate my own work: when I
sense a presence there… when I see someone looking back at me, when some world
begins to breathe…
I love accuracy and precision and care, but without this
sense of vital energy a painting fails its most basic assignment.
