Making, Memories I

As artists we make to find our way. We make to see, to feel, to move through. Much like we do in speaking, or in writing, we can surprise ourselves with what we say we see. To paint is to speak, as well as to listen. Meaning is located somewhere between emergence and disappearance, between clarity and suggestion, between what is thought and what is felt. Paintings encourage a kind of slow looking that is remedic, consolatory, essential.
