To experiment. To see how individual colours and materials respond to one another. To let things flow. Provoking happenstance to give intuition a space to roam. To consciously cover and conceal. To mark out boldly but let shapes take shape.

Opposites understood as extremities of the same spectrum. Abstract. Figurative. Chaos. Structure. Turbulent. Calm.

To seek a balance and let associations settle into place. That’s what I look for. And when I’ve found it, I wipe the slate clean and start over.
