"THERE IS TOO MUCH BEAUTY OUT THERE, ONE NEEDS TO PAY ATTENTION. I PAINT MY OWN VERSION OF REALITY, WHICH IS ONLY A CONCEPT AS WE CANNOT SEPARATE AN OBSERVED OBJECT FROM THE OBSERVER. I HAVE A NEED FOR UNDERSTANDING, FULLY ACKNOWLEDGE AND DEVOUR REALITY AND WHAT IS BEYOND AND THE BEST WAY TO DO THAT IS TO PAINT.I SEEK A KIND OF BEAUTY WHICH IS UNATTAINABLE, EVERY TIME I PAINT I GET THE FEELING THE SUBJECT IS LOOKING AT ME AND ENJOYING BEING LOOKED AT,BEING LOVED. BY LOVING ME IT GIVES ME BACK THE LIFE THAT I LOSE EVERY DAY A LITTLE AT A TIME."
