Some of the pictures are truly mysterious to me.. which is why I so often say publicly that I don't know or don't care what they're really about. And yet I can also say that the paintings are prayers.. that they have to do with whatever it is that makes you want more than what daily life affords.

I think artists almost always end up turning to what's around them, what's in their environment or outside their window.

I started to try to be a colorist, although secretly thinking of myself as somewhat of a black and whiteist.
