ARTISTS STATEMENT:

"At present, my work has become increasingly less calculated and more responsive to the creative process. While I may begin with an idea or concept, the painting ultimately takes on a life of its own. This method serves to create a work that is constantly evolving. Developing textures and forms determine the direction of the painting, leaving me with a feeling that my conscious input is minimal and incidental. My goal is to continue communicating in my own language and see where it takes me." Jerry Olson
