Why I work “big” (from the quote box)

I don’t think my pieces are particularly big, I guess because I can imagine working much much larger. But other people often comment on the size, never in “wow that’s big!” comments but almost always in “I could never work that large” ways. Chacun à son goût, eh? Oui!

I want to be very intimate and human. To paint a small picture is to place yourself outside your experience, to look upon an experience as with a reducing glass. However, when you paint the larger picture, you are in it. — Mark Rothko
