SOMETHING ABOUT PAINTING



If painting is to be worth anything at all,  the artist should be given over to a fundamental skepticism concerning specific meaning, and replace  it with something far more fluid and  dynamic. While form may be seen as a tyrannical necessity and a sign of closure, the gesture of becoming brings a wholly subjective language to unfamiliar eyes without being mired in certainty. In this way the painter would be wise to seek an ill-fitting tension and live with that discomfort.
