30 x 22, process

It takes the pressure off to think of the painting as an evolution of an idea. The process becomes the goal. To be willing and brave enough to act on the intuitive impulse presumes that I actually can recognize that impulse when it makes me itch to act. In this case, it's a good thing to scratch what itches.
