Painting as an act of layering, from the support (stretched canvas, wooden panel etc) via choice of primer, ground, linear marks and patches, underpainting, surface or visible layers which are shifted, erased, clarified, overlapped, focussed again and again until the image is finally achieved.

Studio Notes
Since 1981, I have occasionally used a studio notebook to help order my thoughts. I’m slowly transcribing these notes, from most recent to oldest, as well as adding new ones.
This is a means of clarifying discoveries, noting influences and building an ongoing reference text which I can return to, update and use as a workshop / studio manual.
