| "I like to paint when I feel good. And paint something
that fills me with love. When I'm like this I just
make sure I'm having a blast with the subject and that
the painting can be an instant drop of this for
anyone. I cant get away from representation. Its a
golden memory of real things and the energy they
possesed for me at that time.
I like to do things that I havent set up. Just the way the table happens to be that morning or that afternoon after harvesting the garden when so much life and byproducts of ourselves are glowing out in front of us. Most the time Erica has been doing something with her plants, she is an herbalist, and the beauty of whats layed out there just kills me. The light; maybe evening in fall and shes picked some
Golden Rod or Queen Annes Lace and she tells me that
Queen Annes Lace enhances our mystical side-our
ability to tap into our own personal magic- and then
the way the autumn light, because thats the time of
year its flowering, compounds that and you feel that
sultryness of sleep coming on- winters' unimaginable
quiet prefaced by a sensual evening visitor - and the
magic world opening of that and then something else, a
pair of scissors- a hair brush, happens to be on the
table and all together its so simple and perfect. I
wouldnt want to do anything but paint it just as
simple and pretty as it is.
