WHY I PAINT

I paint because it relaxes me. I paint because suddenly the mood takes me. I paint because someone has asked me. I paint because I love brilliant colours! I paint because I have an idea – a thought about a colour or a shape and I need and desire to pull out a canvas and get out the paints, mix the perfect colour and choose just the right brush. I paint to express my delight and emotions of many fibres. At different times the reason I paint, the motive, changes.
