Color and Movement

I've lived in many different places around the world, and I've always enjoyed soaking up what's around me: colours, cultures, art, architecture, and of course the every day details. Some impression stay with me , others resurface in unexpected ways. Painting gives me freedom to play with all of that. To experiment, take chances, change direction and sometimes simply go with my gut. I like things that aren't too polished or predictable. A bit of tension, a surprising color, a line that takes its own course.

I start with a blank canvas and an open mind. I build, layer, move things around, and sometimes take a painting apart again. There is no fixed formula. I follow what feels right, while constantly looking for a balance between color, shape, composition and movement. Sometimes a painting needs a little disruption to come alive. I keep working until it has its own rhythm and feels just right.
