As much as I love the physicality of painting.
Letting loose
Not having a specific direction in mind
Reacting to the initial act of the first colour and how it sits
On an auto pilot of reasoning
Letting intuition take the reigns
There is something to be said about its opposite
An idea, feeling or image
Formulated before painting
Either detailed, complete
Or foggy, abstract
A foundation
That may be a mantra to guide
While painting
For this painting I’m starting Now
My Mantra is as follows
A painting
That is Closer to
A valve that
Releases
pressure
I’ll let you know how it goes
