| Bill Gingles |
| |
|
Every painting is a starting over, a tacit recognition that after thirty years of painting I still don't really know how to make a painting happen (which is different from knowing how to paint). I just know I can. I know that if I give myself to the painting, the magic usually comes and at some point it's as if I'm no longer in charge. The path is different with each painting no matter how familiar I am with the process involved or how much a new painting has in common with previous paintings. Each new painting presents its own surprise as it develops and I find these events very compelling and very much like life.
