FOR EVERYTHING A REASON

I broke this clay jug by accident. (It appears in a couple of others of my painting.)

I titled this painting '“For Everything A Reason” because I do believe in the statement. And it also doesn’t matter if it’s true. I truly feel that as long as I believe in it, it becomes so. An example would be my painting process. I paint in loose brush strokes to create a more dynamic look. Because of that, some strokes can look like it ruins the area of the painting I’m working on. But I always tell myself it’s a sign that the area needs work. And the painting always becomes better for it!
