My abstract and other monster paintings are never planned, but are allowed to evolve, reflecting the randomness, richness, and strangeness of being alive.

Convictions, yearnings, anxieties and hopes come into play and are intertwined with a conscious desire for the fresh, the beautiful, the peculiar, the bodily, and the true.
