Australian How To Paint

My Story

Painting for me is probably one of the most compelling things on the planet. Itʼs one of the few things that I’ve ever done and kept doing, and never got bored of. Somehow it has fulfilled me and challenged me both at the same time, and itʼs been a way for me to justify my strange view of the world.

Why is pushing coloured goo around so exciting? I don’t know if I can even answer that completely, but I think the process of actually moving paint around is meditative, but more than that it forces you to look at the world in a lot more detail and depth. It adds a whole new layer to even the most mundane things. Stuff gets exciting. Possibly I am a small child who never lost my sense of wonder. Truth is, who cares!
