As an artist

I want to push myself as far as I can because, let’s face it, you only have that much time. You want to make that statement so that someone can stand on it and evolve. That’s what I’m hoping for. I’m pretty sure that at some point people will deliver themselves from this and move on to something else.

Abstraction has the advantage of allowing the viewer to go beyond a painting’s premise the more you look at it. It sends you into introspection. Hopefully, the viewer becomes open to other feelings, other demands, other necessities, other unknowns.
