Even though my studio floor is often thick with charcoal dust and eraser crumbs, I would still classify myself as of the genus Painters. Bound by dedication to some greater Universal Atelier, the space within a Painter's studio is Other - a vast wilderness of thoughts, and a place for personal rituals. Paintings become places, like real landscapes, geographic by nature, the act of painting to travel without moving (much). Like any journey involving great distance or time, it’s best to focus on tasks and rituals, not destinations. There are maps for this stuff already, seasoned fellow travellers to learn from, and a rich history full of navigational aids, but I’m seeking the path least trodden. In this regard, my work is a visual travelogue - a record of my travails, of my ever-changing thoughts and feelings regarding the nature of Painter, Painting, and Studio.
