When objects are applied to my actions and choices, they often come about because of necessity, for what ever reasons are important. In order to allow a process to work, we need to understand its behaviour intimately and this is what the painter tries to do with his or her practise, in an attempt to finely tune the senses such as eyesight, hearing, touch, tactile, skin on paint etc, muscle, force, and hair, the nervous system, skull, matted fabric and odour. Things that are caused out of necessity are usually for the better. If we learn the art of spontaneity through accidents, everything else which isn't necessitated is destroyed and continues to be destroyed. It baffles me why at a mundane and more serious level they are seen as bad, negative or clumsy, when accidents could be used in a positive way.
