"Doesn’t all art in some way reveal something of it’s maker? In the space of my imagination the physical expressions displayed by horses relate directly to my own inner life. Its where my feelings live, and I see them all there. Along with this come all the considerations of painting; color, shape, materials and scale to name only a few. Finding a place where these things become integral to one another is a passionate experiment."
