Painting is a coalescing of experience.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think a painting should include more experience than simply intended statement.
See, when I paint, it is an experience that, at its best, is transcending reality.
Painting, for me, is a dynamic balance and wholeness of life; it is mysterious and transcending, yet solid and real.
Painting is a hobby for me.
The truth is that painting is all about scale; you use scale to create experience. A lot of artists have lost that ability. They don't even know that's something they should be doing.
I don't want to be a film-maker. I think painting is far more exciting and profound.
Painting is almost like a sport. It's like this action thing. When I do it, I'm really not thinking. The paintings are like a diary that I might not want to read again.
Painting is, I think, inevitably an archaic activity and one that depends on spiritual values.
Painting keeps me occupied in those moments when travel can be aimless and even disorienting. Mainly it is a way to register at least some of the new impressions of a foreign place, when its thrilling barrage can sometimes overwhelm you.
Our experience of any painting is always the latest line in a long conversation we've been having with painting. There's no way of looking at art as though you hadn't seen art before.
