The persistent demonstration of a certain tethered form of artistic virility drives a painting practice unafraid of its own potency and, conversely, the probability of regular collapse. Indeed, energies generated via the enforced coupling of incongruous creative forces actively power a fluid and infinite process of fresh paint; the sump of which collects in a vigorous concentration of structured painterly know how and investigation. Making a virtue of (once derided) skittishness affords a physical and temporal layering that corresponds directly with the paintings prophesized future contexts. The in-built anticipation of the works equal debt to its surroundings shifts the emphasis from finished object to contagious ongoing exploration. Each work is a lit fuse with no (or multiple) climax that consistently occupies the crest of an unfolding and endless renewal. (Shane Bradford 2011)
