When you come to the place where you are, practice occurs.
Eihi Dōgen
To make something that looks like itself is therefore the problem, the solution.
Richard Tuttle
I see the moment of making a mark as an embodiment of imagination, where body and mind become one. It is a primary point of contact, of clarity, that is before language, before thought--an original, root experience, a manifestation of our animal mind operating along a wild edge. The process of painting and drawing offers me, as poet Gary Snyder has written, “an open space to move in with the whole body, the whole mind.”
