I tend to work on the same subject matter over the course of a year or two. I work from photographs that I have taken. Once the painting has begun, I no longer refer back to the picture. I change the colors and the background because I am not trying to make an exact replica of what I see, only a sense or feeling of what was there. I work in oil paints on wood panels so I can manipulate the paint and scratch into it without fear of harming my background. In this way, I am not only painting on the wood, but also into it.
