I approach a painting as if it were a form of cultivation of an adaptive living system, and as a place of inhabitation held open as much for its eventual audience as for me in its production.

This field of mutual dwelling within the continuous fabric of nature, is where I feel there lies a vital sense of being here that might be given shape - and to do this feels particularly important now in this time of coronavirus.
