Summer Paintings
Dear Reader, I’d like to introduce you to some of the painters who have influenced my work. You see, whenever someone sees any sort of splash of paint, invariably they only relate to Jackson Pollack, who did throw a lot of pigment around, but he had a very purposeful reason for how and why he constructed his work. While I enjoy a good Pollack, his wife Lee Krasner has provided me with much more inspiration. I would say my favorite painter would be Joan Mitchell who was loath to explain her work and chose to have the viewer decide for themselves what the picture meant. There are many wonderful painters of abstract expressionism, but to me it remains about the paint itself. How can I express what I feel using liquid colors.
