“My studio sits above a frame shop in northeast Minneapolis, and in winter the snow outside does half my thinking for me. Eight years as a cabinetmaker taught me to sand until nothing extra remains. I paint matte acrylic in birch, ash and fog tones, letting two or three soft blocks of colour meet along one careful edge, then leaving the rest of the canvas alone.”
