We have within us enormous reserves of trapped potential. Our natural urges have been so constrained by the accommodations of living that we each have a smoldering volcano just below the surface. To enable this force to erupt in a healthy, open, and positive manner is a momentous act.

When you set aside the mantle of control in the painting process, images arise from ancient layers of the psyche.

What I want people to realize is that there is enough inside them, that everything that they really need in order to feel a sense of aliveness and creativity is already inside. And not only is it inside them, but if they allow it they will have an interesting life.

To play is to listen to the imperative inner force that wants to take form and be acted out without reason.

Chaos is the soul of creation. It plows the ground of intuition. Without chaos, nothing will grow.

If you do not listen to your intuition, it will stop talking to you. Your intuition is like a sensitive friend. If you question it, censor it, judge it, it gets hurt and becomes silent.

Look upon paintings with eyes of mystery rather than judgement. Support the need to enter into the sacred space beyond evaluation.
