Why do I paint? Can I say "just because?" Can things be that easy? I believe they can. I'm not a complex person, pretty much I do things that I enjoy... and I enjoy art. There is no deep meaning behind what I do. I love to create... on canvas, on paper, anywhere. I paint things that catch my eye… it could be the setting, the light, it could something or nothing. Now to put this to canvas, this is what I want to do… and I struggle.
I love the thrill and the excitement of a plain white piece of paper, or a fresh canvas. All the world and it's endless possibilities right there before me! There is this invigorating sense of power, then to take my paint and try to recreate and capture that feeling, trying to make it all come together to work to my satisfaction. Right now it's a "trial and error" process, but I love it!
...that’s it, just because."
