As I began this series, I intended to express the power and fire of
the great animals of Africa. While in the pursuit of these
expressions I found myself drifting into another area of painting,
an area less figurative. The paintings became more of an idea of
what to expect rather than the thought already shown with nothing
else to marvel about. As I progress into these new regions of
painting, I hope to capture new notions as I make my blunders in my
next series of paintings because it’s in the blunders of things that
art is created. A painting is never finished without them being a
part of it.
