Ok, I’ll just say it. This has not been the best year in many ways. Rather than join the chorus citing the crappiness that was 2020, I’d like to focus on some really great things that happened this year and how I made the difficult environment work for my art practice.

As an artist, you become accustomed to starting new work without having all of the answers. I often have no idea where a painting will end up and what path it may take as I work through it.
