I have never yet painted a location that something unique didn't happen. This is Spain. |
It becomes a three way conversation between me, the painting, and the viewer. |
It's the difference between standing with a glass between you and whatever is going on in the world and being right out in it on the other side of the glass where the action is happening. |
What really appeals to me is being there with your feet in the mud, or the bugs after you, or looking over your shoulder to make sure you're okay. |
