Statement
I make paintings because it is challenging and fun. I usually take an old piece that for some reason does not work anymore and figure out where it wants to go next. I don’t know how the thing will turn out until I get there. I stop when I do not know what else to do with it. I video the process and upload it to YouTube.

Making art, at least the kind I do, is about expressing one’s emotions.

blackfish dec '07

Just for the record, my first show at Blackfish since I rejoined it in 2007. This was filmed by Jim Neidhardt, one of the Blackfish artists. There were two other (!!) videos from that show: one filmed primarily by H and the other of friends who showed up at the opening. The Jan '09 show is much clearer in HD.

Might as well post this before the next show goes up next week...
