I am not always concerned with reproducing an ‘obvious visible’ ‘but an emerging invisible’ that comes from the act of painting and drawing, and the dialogue that develops between the paint and painter.  The work is not a representation of a literal object or subject, but a series of observations and thoughts that become the work.'
