Catalogue Note
"These days, I’m preoccupied with how to combine fast and slow painting. The pleasure of linking a mental image with the right material form remains undiminished, but it’s no longer shaped by just one mode of painting. It’s a relief to be able to match better the nuances of mood or state of mind I may feel or be interested in with options from a wider range of working methods."
