An additive approach characterizes the artist's method, emphasizing the importance of allowing a painting to evolve organically rather than removing elements. Admiration for self-taught artists stems from their sincere and genuine creations, produced for the sake of creation rather than market demand. While an appreciation for sincerity exists, a distinction is made regarding market-driven art, recognizing a certain filter affecting perception. Sincerity brings clarity and comfort, contrasting with the guarded feelings associated with insincere motivations in artistic expression.
"I like to back off and let a painting breathe, rather than make a move for the sake of making a move."
"I'm an additive kind of artist. I keep adding, I don't really subtract. If I'm going to put something down, it's got to be locked in."
