Artist statement:
Each painting, a new conversation, within which each layer, it’s own inquiry. This one revealing and concealing whole communities of faces, gathered in untold places, unfurling from within the depths of a brand new land, a not yet complete story, running on the juice of an unfurling whim; just like this thing called life.
In this evolving face, I argued and resisted – no I’m not an impressionist, nor a realist – so the conversation deepened, again, teaching me that doubt and discovery walk the journey with me, that it’s not me who’s painting, that something inside me knows what it’s doing and, when I get out of it’s way, it shows me what it wants and tells me how to do it; how to paint, how to live, where to be, who I really am and what I’m really capable of – when I let go of the limitation I was led to believe was true. So more than learning how to paint, I’m learning how to listen to that deepest place from which I unfurl, natural as nature itself.
The theme of each piece is the conversation I had to have to find it, the conversation I had to have to know the next step, the conversation I had to have with life itself to know who I answer to and where I really belong.
Thank you Sam, for showing me who I really am – by your insisting on being YOU.
