As a student of painting we often heard that we should paint what we know. For me the idea painting what I know has meant returning to familiar sites with new ideas. Allowing the idea to change allows the painting to move within itself, meaning that I don't feel constrained by any one idea.
Enter the creative process with a fresh canvas and see where it goes.
Showing two views of the same pond painted years apart make you wonder where the time has gone.
