I think that's my job, my job is to see things that not everybody else might see. Not that it's not there. Not that I have to dive into the depths of a Woody place to see it as much as it's just stuff on a daily basis that you go by, you don't necessarily pay attention, but I'm looking to paint my world.
It's more about the feeling of my art, rather than the reality of it. You get a sense of the light and place, and depending on where you've grown up or traveled, then you evoke a memory.
When we buy art, what we're doing is we're telling people who create that art, we value their contribution to the world. It's a much bigger statement than simply I'm going to go get some cereal off the shelf.
