The light in the North is constantly a thrill for me.

When I start doing a body of work I feel vulnerable, fearful. If I stopped trusting the process, I would stop doing art.

For the surface, I'm not interested in painterly convention. It's more interesting if it looks like it painted itself.

Going on the ship felt like 100 years or one day. Timeless. Beautiful vertigo. It will continue to show up in my work.

I paint bridges because they're in transition; you're coming or going, you're not anywhere - full of possibility.

There's an assumption that because I'm an artist, I've got all the time in the world.

I wish I felt energetic and could paint all the time, because there are so many paintings I'd like to do.
