Statement

Statement

I don’t like to give explanations of my paintings. While they have deep personal meaning to me, I prefer to let the art speak for itself and for others to decide what it means individually to them.  In truth, it makes me uncomfortable to talk about meanings.  So I leave this up to the individual to decide what it means to them.  All I can add is this, if you want to see a strange world, take a look behind my door.
