Living Waters,
Acrylic on Canvas, 18" x 24", 2016
Many lessons for beginning abstractionists encourage the exploration of materials and focus on the formal aspects of the work. Although I consider both these aspects to direct the structure of the painting, my main interest as subject matter is to look for qualities in the paint properties that communicate musical space, energy, transformation, life and death. Like a poet or a musician, I am looking for those bits and pieces that can express what is elusive and expresses something deeper than the surface.
