Aspects of Modern Life

My wish is to live in the real world. I have a natural curiosity about my place on earth and a thirst for sincerity in all forms. “Aspects of Modern Life” is a glimpse into what happens when this very active inner life and the outer world come in contact.
I tried to work on these new paintings with “feeling” in my whole body. I’m note quite as interested in brushing the paint on, but pushing the paint around.
In this series, I’m trying to approach the work as a tradesman approaches his job, in a very ordinary way, with a watchful attention and a certain confidence that comes from experience while at the same time searching for something new.
How can I bring more sensitivity to the color? This is the question that would not leave me alone during my painting sessions and at other moments. Coming back to this question often, it became very alive in me.
