      Standing in front of a big blank canvas, the magic between now and what comes next is where the action is.
     I start with openness to the emergence of something unexpected, unexplainable, and without sketches or specific thoughts. Process-focused, how the natural world communicates with me and how I communicate that relationship is played out on canvas in brushstrokes and synaptic flashes. It's about doing.
     The natural world is still wondrously cryptic and I'll never stop learning. Recognizing patterns, rhythms, and connections in nature and life is a well-established survival skill of humans and other beings. A good painting reveals things. The “presence” of a finished piece is an exposé of symbiotic, holistic points condensed in time. Whatever time is! Whew. That's a whole other story.
