"I enjoy the physicality of thick paint and use knives to smear on one wet layer over another or to excavate through existing layers. Although I strive for a certain ‘visual plausibility’ in my work, representational accuracy is not my prime objective. The most enigmatic and interesting qualities particular to painting, have to do with the transformation of pigment in paste to an image on canvas.I am, therefore seeking to retain some visual evidence of the process used in making the image as a subtext for reading or interpreting it."
