“I like the idea of nature being very chaotic, but also being predictable and defined.
When I’m painting I imagine a Venn Diagram with one circle being an idealization of something and the other circle is its reality. The paintings are the small overlap of the two ideas. Structure and chaos. Real and unknown.” – Lee Stewart
