Is belief salvation?
The creative process is the closest thing I’ve ever known to birth
Baptism Sundays of my youth held particular sway in my romantic mind
Sinners entered the water and came out radiant
- in belief -
Is belief salvation?
Caught Cat (2024)
Oil on Panel
16 x 20
Creative birth feels like that… the creative process feels like that….
Expectancy and violence of a sunrise
There are moments in the creative process, and perhaps most clearly in paintings -
when an energy in the painting begins to speak, and when this happens,

dread

Dread that my process will be inadequate to provide them the birth they deserve
(That) They need me to come from wherever they are coming and I won’t have the requisite courage to land them here
- or that my interpretation won’t be true.
Eventually, this dark hollow folds in on itself.
Carrying not even the weight of gravity under its wing -
