In March 2020 I committed to creating 30 small paintings in 30 days on canvas and on paper, exploring various attributes that I could discover by adding a product called Cold Wax Medium to my oil paint. By the 10th of March we were in Covid-19 Lock-Down in Sonoma County, and it wasn't always easy to concentrate and keep the experiment going. In the end, it became a focus that really helped me through that hard time.
The practice became a flow of creative explorations with no predefined outcomes, but more of a state of curiosity, asking myself, "how will the paint respond if I try this or that?" I sought to have an understanding of the way my paint moves across the surface of the canvas (paper), to not be in control, and leave allowances for happy accidents that cause an appreciable interest in a painting.
I was looking for organic visual effects and suggestions of patterns and designs that we see in nature. The experience was powerfully informative! I came across many happy surprises, and felt lost much of the time as well. I paint with an emphasis on color, and find that doing so lifts my spirits. Color gives me a dose positivity and brightens my day.
