Biography
When I start a painting it's always directly on the canvas. That way I feel the strongest connection. I love the idea that the painting is both the final art and a sketch at the same time. This is the closest way I can get to the truth. I work with the painting as in a dialog, me and the canvas. A dialog where I try to let go of the perfect so I can set the raw line free. Most of my paintings have a over all theme. It's not clear in the beginning but as the piece comes along the theme becomes clear. It's never about being right or wrong but it give's me an opportunity to look and feel the issue and that way bringing awareness to it. What we do with it afterwords is up to our self but it's an opportunity to be conscious about our choices.
