I am interested in the opposition of dissolution and emergence, working with paint and solvent as a fluid means of playing with form, pushing it back almost to formlessness. I apply paint either close up using brushes, fingers, rags, or whatever comes to hand; or from a distance by throwing thinned paint from a brush. Color and solvent blend imperfectly, pooling and running. In the paintings superimposed transparent layers contain multiple focal points among which the gaze shifts; and there is a visual shift into the surface where layers of color overlap, merge, disintegrate and meld into the plane or disappear to reveal the white ground. The interplay of intention and abandonment of intention brings about an emergence of form which creates the paintings. |
