I approach my work as being open to interpretation. When I am working on a painting would never think about meaning. I will always leave the meaning to the viewer. There is always a push and pull with the canvas. I only do what it tells me to do.

What are some of the biggest challenges you face in your artistic process, particularly when working with oil on canvas?

Being patient. Painting in transparent layers , I must allow everything to develop. If the process is rushed and if I try to do too much the colors become muddy and I loose the vibrant colors that I am trying to achieve.
