“With much of my painting and writing, the time between
sleep and awake plays a part. Things creep up on me and this painting is one of
them. There is a bit more to the image but not that can be written.”
Toronto, Ontario “I had been sketching out faces for another project. I was questioning
what a face shows? Likes - dislikes. Hard life – good life. Then I was seeing
music, art, the world. This painting arose out of those thoughts”
“I found a recurring theme of Gnostic information in books I
was reading. I pondered on what might Jesus and Mary Magdalene looked like?
This painting is what rose out of the canvas. I was interested in the
simplicity of it.”
“Tried my hand, literally on a self portrait. I did not use
a mirror. I used my fingers and hand to get proportions. Mind memory or
assumption as to colours. There is some of me in there.”
