"The creation of something new is not accomplished by the intellect but by the play instinct acting from inner necessity. The creative mind plays with the object it loves" -C.G. Jung

I am interested in the unconscious artistic instinct. I paint by building up layers and scratching or stripping back to reveal the hidden and the history. I am inspired by marks made by nature. I love the idea of mark making that is totally individual yet connects us all. It is the process of art making that I am drawn to.In the end, I want the painting to tell it's own story.
