LIGHT COMING THROUGH
Light with darkness, small mind with big mind; abstract with form, form with formlessness; movement of the mind within the bigger view of absolute space - I simply observe all of this, in the mind and also in the art. The joy, the delight, to play! Allowing oneself to freely abide in the discipline of non-attachment runs through the work as a theme. In this freedom I still try to capture something from deep within, encountering it through the movement of what's in front of me on the canvas. The colors, turpentine, paper, texture, the movement of my strokes, mixed with my perceptions and presence of mind come together naturally. The mark of non-creating is the mark of natural expression. It is the signature of what I value in my life and work.
