Innovation is the antidote to my restlessness. Finding new ways of approaching a situation allows me to understand my relation to it more acutely. In regards to painting, I've subscribed to this idea by working with collage, where I take things out of their functional (or original) context, and place them into new ones. I've found that collage in particular lends itself as an ideal method of recontextualization; the results allow me to explore any and all possibilities of new meaning.
