Item details

My painting reflects a line-based language, defined by layers and color combinations. I try to be true of myself while I work on each painting. I believe directness of acting and being is the way to one’s true nature. This nature is not something we make; it is already there. Zen teaches that we spend years forgetting and abandoning this nature, but that we can always access it again. Once realized, this clear approach translates effortlessly to everything I create.

On a blank canvas, I start by applying a coat of primary color, then composing one line after another, repeatedly, answering the call of intuition. What I create flows directly from embracing the experience of making art. I try to return constantly to the true nature of my work, rather than settling for mere suggestions or ideas. Furthermore, I imagine new possibilities when each line is made, suggesting an expansion outward. It is impossible to calculate each line’s trajectory or the laws that define its existence on the canvas – but this state of ‘not knowing’ is what opens the door to an endless world of possibilities.

I consider the contents of each painting to reflect a captured moment, the record of a genuine experience, and hope my works provide viewers with a window to the truth of their own being.
