Applying paint to a surface opens a door. I use acrylic paint exclusively, scrubbing, scraping, scratching, or removing paint, spraying it with water to extend its life. I push paint not to represent anything or make meaning but simply to engage the act, to play with indeterminacy, with abstraction, with pictures of nothing, thereby better inviting the collaboration of the viewer into the experience of a painting.
