Why Do I Paint?

I paint because words are inadequate in expressing what I feel and visual language is richer and freer. I wish my paintings speak directly to the viewers' feelings and bypass the thinking and analytical minds. It should not matter what my intention for each painting was, or what techniques were employed, but it matters if the viewers can feel what they see in the painting, or if their heart is stirred, however lightly, by the painting, and a note of a silent song is heard.
