Whatever music I am listening to at the moment I paint has a direct influence on what images I create. Since I have such a variety of tunes, and a painting is never created in a day, the abstractness can change daily, as my mood does, as the songs do, so I am not in total control of the finished painting until I feel like I do not have to keep adding or subtracting to it.
While the paint is drying, and I keep surveying,I know when what I want it to say, it says. And whatever that is, is also up to the viewer to see what they want to see.
Art has always been my passion, and I lifted my first paint brush at age 2.
When I paint, my imagination is free, which provides many opportunities for happy accidents, and whatever direction I thought I was heading in one moment can change, and influence what my paintings final color moments and shapes become.
