look hard

I never quite feel I've said enough, or not in a way that will mean what I'm trying to say. So I keep painting. Keep trying. Keep attempting to express feelings which seem to be buried deep down.

The paintings are merely the product of this effort, this search. They are not useful utensils, they’re not supposed to match the curtains, or make any immediate sense.

The marks come from a long way away, far away in time and they are laid out in order of that distance. Their meaning will become clearer in time. The longer you look the more you will see. And maybe, one day, if I’m lucky, you will understand.
