For me, although many different art forms attract me, the tools that I find most natural and comfortable are language and oil paint; I’ve also learned that as someone with a limited number of spoons it’s best to keep my toolbox clean and simple.

If we are presented with quick associative chains of past experiences, we can see a pattern in a body of information that is usually not at once presented to our “inner eye” as such.”
