I never know where the inspiration for my paintings is going to come from. Most of the time it just sort of comes out of me as I paint but sometimes it comes from unexpected places. It could be from a dream I had or a story I read or something I saw outside or a picture a friend took on their phone and sent me. I've been taking pictures of beautiful skies for as long as I've been able to figure out how to work a camera. I've used entire rolls of film taking photos of sunsets and sunrises and only ever painted a few pictures based on them. Lately I've been looking at photos of even mundane things differently and it's not because of the subject matter but because of where the photos came from. I will be visually explaining in new paintings in the very near future ;)
