Pinpointing a specific motive for painting is often challenging, so I create art without a particular form. Sometimes, I start with a clear motive, but it usually fades as I progress. Other times, I begin without a specific motive, only to have one emerge as I perceive a set of marks or feel a predisposition that suggests a direction for the artwork. Embracing the formless while being open to accepting form is a complex but essential characteristic of painting.
