”That’s what I do: I find something that speaks to me, and then I go with it and let it tell me its story, but filtered through me with whatever codings there are in my personal history, my family history, my experience with my contemporary understanding of what it’s like to live in this era as compared to that era. All these things then form a portrait, so it’s a different kind of portrait painting; a kind of portrait painting that speaks to religious art.”
