"There are many things that inspire me to paint-walking in the fields and forests surrounding the area where I live, just looking for people to carry out their daily lives. Fresh ideas come into my head constantly paintings and note many of them on paper, not to forget them.
When the painting of a landscape, a large part of the information is there, but more often that there is no need to add anything more, or changed slightly. A cloud formation, a distant figure, or maybe the way the light is falling. With landscapes I think it is not so much an idea, but an ability to balance and compose, to some extent, what is already there.
I think the English countryside very romantic. The fields and trees that I have their own character and history, just like a person does. By taking enough time to study the opinion that I am going to paint, helps me to decide which areas require toning and areas that need to be made more vivid, if necessary, in order to highlight its character. Though I also enjoy painting landscapes painting. I believe that this work a challenge, which is part of its attraction for me.
Just sitting on a park bench watching the world go by can fill my head with a lot of new ideas. The store of ideas is endless. As with painting landscapes, it is only a matter of looking, thinking and using an imaginary form in my head. The image then be engraved in my mind, because unlike a landscape, the subject matter may not remain for a long time to come, letting me to rebuild my ideas using models, etc."
