“It is important to allow a painting to speak for themselves in terms of balance of mark, gesture, colour and compositional balance…
“I am not particularly interested in illustrating a particular scene with every blade of grass, nor do I want location to be particularly obvious. I want the paintings to speak for themselves as entity.”
— Contemporary artist William Wood

I write Thoroughbred pedigrees for a living, but paint for loving. Your emails keep the art blood flowing while I’m in my frantic work season. I love your work, insight and style. Bon journee!
