Autumn Artwork

What I love about painting is that it embodies a series of thoughts, feelings and processes. It's all there on the canvas as a record. I can put something on the canvas, consider it, adjust it, remove it, replace it, add to it, reveal it, destroy it and repair it. I can be in a good mood, a bad mood or a destructive mood; it's all useful to my work."¨Â "¨I tend to improvise what I do on the canvas. I have a sense or a vague roadmap in mind, but usually I react to what happens during the making of a painting. This is what determines when a painting is finished for me. I have no ultimate plan with the materials I am going to use. I want to be surprised. I would get very bored if I followed a procedure. Where I am now with my work is a place that is difficult to react to immediately. For me it's quite a special place. The deeper I fall into it, the more there is to find, and I think this is one of the wonderful things about the seasons.
