the random thoughts game
Seen together they create poems, alone they are windows into another dimension where color makes the rules and play is not just a four letter word. They are at once about intensity and simplicity: the intensity of seeing, the simplicity of being.
And these paintings are completely about paint. A romance with material, a celebration of the hand, small enough to be personal, solid enough to be held. They embody discovery, pushing and pulling, taking wrong turns and ending up in right places.
