I work “intuitively”. In my case that means that I work on quite a few paintings at the same time and continue which each of them only when my bowels feel really sure about what to do with them. Some paintings are waiting already two years for that moment. So I am glad I declared two paintings “finished” yesterday. (“Art is never finished, only abandoned.” – the quote is attributed to both Leonardo and Picasso, without any proof that any of them ever said so), signed them and sprayed them with varnish.

One I called On Being Sane in Insane Places (after the Rosenhan experiment). I like it a lot, my persistent experimenting with less conventional painting tools (credit cards, rags, nails, cleaning brushes, beer caps) seems to pay off. The other one, Living Room, is more restrained and I don’t like it so much. But I would love to sell it. Anybody?
