I started to paint after retiring from a career built of equations. While describing real life

processes with mathematics tickled my mind, creating art from a blank surface tickles

my whole being.

The process of painting itself is what fires my imagination. I believe that the hand

expressing subconscious feelings and the rational mind designing a work of art thrive

when they are a single step out of sync. When the latter is way ahead of the former the

painting is often stilted and lacks life. When the former is far in the lead the result is

usually utter confusion.

I enjoy creating room for the unexpected, to give the materials the possibility to interact

in random ways. This controlled chaos forces me to improvise, to stretch my

imagination and techniques in order to incorporate the results of these interactions into

the overall work. In my opinion, this leads to paintings that are alive and full of energy.
