Christopher Noxon: But what does it MEAN?
Sometimes I’ll start out with an idea - about the interconnectedness of nature, say, or the way landscapes are so often used as promotion in the exploitation or settling of wild lands. But then the tools take over, the paint starts moving and honestly I’m not thinking at all. Painting for me is a feeling, an experience, a devotional practice that exists way beyond words.
