A wooden panel is a very engaging material to work with: It is dead. It is always moving and reacting. Even while restrained to a support structure, wood continues to warp with different temperatures and levels of moisture. It has a life of its own. It is fighting back. Through this fight I get to know my material and come to understand it as an object. The life of the wood feeds my work. The reaction of the panel that I make as support for my painted surface introduces chance as each wooden surface not only looks different but responds to the paint unlike anything before. When the panel is hung on the wall it transforms from an object to an image. I begin to paint by appropriating the layers of the tree though I never know how far I can or want to push the tree’s fingerprint. It is not my intention to hide these structures under layers of paint, but instead to highlight them through the tracing of layers, giving authorship to the tree in my work. While the image may be the foremost quality of my work, the life of the wood is present. It continues to add spirit and atmosphere in whatever I create. This spirit is a taste of the life that emits from the trees in the woods from which all of my work originates.
