Many of these Rorschach paintings are designed as a spiral with interconnecting parts that always interweave, even if the thread is thin. For me, this motion in the painting evokes a crashing line of waves.
 
My abstract paintings are inspired by Rorschach tests and are part of an ongoing project to document the subjectivity of perception. Like cloud watching, people always see different images within these paintings. At times their visual projection is a shared experience, but mostly, we’re never looking at the exact same picture. The ongoing question is, what are the sources for people’s unique responses? I have come to include memory, mood and degree of imagination.
