Oils

I like how oil flows; it absorbs itself and emerges new.

Using oils, I can manipulate the source and texture - making it thick, thin, and/or watery. My earlier work was with my fingers and a pallet knife, giving a unique translation of my work. However, now I paint oils with paintbrushes, focusing more on the brushwork.

My works need to inspire me in some way. I’m drawn to images that evoke emotion.

"If you hear a voice within you say 'you cannot paint,' then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced."

— Vincent Van Gogh
