"The process of painting, for me, is an additive process. The final product is something that is immersive and a little bit large—I actually don’t say the fantasy world thing anymore. Because I want it to feel like an environment but I also want them to feel like organisms, these kinds of bodies. I want them to tread that line, to tow the line between landscape and figure. These things feel like they could be one body, or one character."
"Repetition transforms the thing that is repeated into something that is unrecognizable from what it originally was."
"I don’t necessarily think of the paintings as that poisonous, really. I could make them much more poisonous if I wanted to. But I do want them to have a little bit of that poisonous edge."
