I feel cleaner on the days where I am painting as opposed to the periods when I am not, that is certain to me. In a sense it is a transfiguration, what comes at me in my life or what I see going on in the world comes out as something beautiful or hopefully beautiful.

I play music, I paint - these things come from your depths.

The paintings usually start as abstracts and then I look at them and look at them, and like a Rorschach test, I try and see what it is.

What do you know about music, you're not a lawyer?

I start out making my paintings for me. I don't see it as a form of communication. Until, of course, after they are done and I want people to see them. And want them to be recognized. But while I am making them I just try to get lost in them. Kind of like it's a prayer.

If someone who knows what's going on comes up and says they liked the music, I appreciate that.
