Perhaps the most exciting thing about abstract painting is the unknown. When I stand in front of the canvas I have no idea what I am going to do or preconception of how I think the painting should work out. It is a jump into the abyss with only my years of painting knowledge and raw ability to guide me.

It forces me to just have courage to go on, taking it as it comes, working it out as I go, seeing the path only one step at a time.
