Intuitive Painting

 I consider my paintings non-objective as most of the imagery is non-representational; however, organic forms reminiscent of the natural world do emerge. I look for new shapes to outline as the layers begin to interact.  Whenever sections of my painting feel disconnected, I let washes drip through wet paint, pulling pigment across my canvas to connect.


When painting, I try to dive into a subconscious state, trusting muscle memory and working as intuitively as possible. I paint many layers of intertwining patterns, creating a strata like composition. I have a need for it all to connect in some way, but not too obviously, akin to the ebb and flow of our all encompassing natural world.
