“Paint is pulled across the surface.
Layer after layer, color advances and recedes like the tides.
As the paint flows back and forth
the surface glows from ephemeral flux.
Simplification suspends the freshness of these fleeting moments
and distills the surface from a series of events
into a single experience.” – D. Quevedo
