Borders and Boundaries

I begin intuitively, allowing the painting to evolve and resolve itself through having a dialogue with it. The elements within a work have a dialogue while I paint and in turn, I have a conversation with the artwork in order to arrive at a finished form. I find the composition and surface to show itself to me over time. Sometimes cloaked within a dream, confines defined as political or self imposed, while mediating or not thinking about it at all. At times this conversation can happen quickly if I am open to it and at other times it takes months or years to become resolved.
