Allegories
Abstract painting for me is a realm of pareidolia, not long after
activating a picture plane with some paint, my mind begins to pick
out the latent and hidden imagery there. Some paintings start with
sketches and in those cases, the discovery of objects was made before painting. In others, the discovery is made in the process
of painting itself. The challenge is not to spell out what I see too
clearly in order to leave room for the viewer to discover what they
may. Let them see what they see, but I see a story, thus, allegorical abstractions.
