| I am a self-taught artist, led to painting from
garden making; led to glass initially by its luminosity; lured
to stay by the processes I discovered there. Like Wolf Kahn,
a painter I greatly admire, "I don’t have ideas; I have appetites."
Those appetites come first from nature and its boundless offerings
on any simple walk on a beach or in the forest. The rest from
tasting the works of many people, places and times in all manner
of materials. I can no longer tell, nor do I care, which are
most influential. To begin a painting is like beginning a good
journey. Bring all that you know and let the trip take you.
