My paintings are Strong, deliberately Imperfect, and Beautiful.
For me painting is emotive, and a great deal of time and thought goes into each creation. I am drawn to texture and contrast, and my process consists of straightening and perfecting, and then pushing the paint in a freer, less controlled manner. I find both approaches necessary; working in multiple layers with each.
