Studio walls, where I often clean off my brushes, and then when I find myself stuck with a painting I start messing around with walls instead. It's nice to feel the freedom that comes in doing something that has no purpose, that isn't meant to last or be sold or anything.
Like your wall too. It looks like a coherent painting, with desk and all, worked out and loose too. Do you ever paint as large 'for real'? Makes me understand your need to connect paintings in space better. About art and words: I love writing for my blog but when I write about my work I worry sometimes that it's a bit of a cop-out, that maybe my work needs good writing because it's not strong enough in itself.
yes, I have worked larger, when I've had somewhere to do it, but haven't lately, more for practical reasons - hope to do so soon. You know, I have come to appreciate and admire those who know how to use words well, and see it as an art that can complement the visual. It's also like offering little entryways for people who don't know what to make of non-representational art.
Greatly influenced by the urban landscape, windows and boxes (painted or actual constructions) create spaces bits of found treasure, similar to the bits and pieces that we gather over time to turn a space into a home. Lines of various sorts wander through the paintings and then the larger space, tracing a path that never finds a place to settle.
