Painting the world around me in one sense is merely a vehicle. A way of entering that particular arena of plastic expression where feelings and sensations mingle. Much like my abstractionist friends, my effort is to give the work some kind of autonomy. Yet I am interested in how part of oneself may be 'reflected in' or 'echoed back' by the environment. I like the notion that popular music is the soundtrack to our lives and the world we inhabit the backdrop.
