Theory and painting: Not all painters are interested in theories, nor in their work embodying ideas; some actively reject this possibility. I generally dislike prescriptive attitudes and think many options are valid in the sisyphean construction of meaning. I am excited by the pure materiality of paint and the technicalities of painting as a language, but I also thrive on the philosophy surrounding painting and the conceptual tensions figuration -to use an expedient word- embodies. Here I will share some thoughts on painting as a discipline, on my painting in general and on specific works, as well as sharing some of the insights I have gained about various technical issues which may be of interest and use to others.
